irst shown as a concept at the 2001 Tokyo show, the GTR's long gestation may see it overshadowed by higher-powered rivals before it's even launched. Nissan is relying on the car's high-tech intelligent all-wheel-drive system to give it a handling edge, however. Big question is: Can U.S. Nissan dealers really sell a $55,000-plus car?

Heck look at the G, it started at 280 and looks like its going up to 115+ over 4 years. Thats a 35hp increase not factoring in the change in rating standards.
Even if it starts at 450, it'll probably rise up to 500 over a few years.
And the more I think about it, the GTR needs to stay in the Vette range to keep sales up. They need to have something in the high-$40k-50k, then have a higher end that can go up to high-$60k-70k.
