I just watched this whole video sent in to us and it’s quite fascinating. Kazunori Yamauchi, producer of the video gate series Gran Turismo takes the new Nissan GT-R out on the Nurburgring and the German autobahn (over 300km/h).
He also sits down for an interview with GT-R head developer Kazutoshi Mizuno and explains that the original Nissan Skyline GT-R’s were part of his inspiration to create Gran Turismo.
Great watch.

The BBS LM-DBK 20″ wheels that were first announced back in March are finally due to go out those who pre-ordered. Well this guy has already had his fitted up with a set of Bridgestone RE070′s to go with them.
The wheels are a limited run of 100 sets only and are only for the Japanese market. They look good but I might need a few more angles before I’m sold.
Update: Third photo added

Pack your bags and get your airfares sorted it time for a road trip across Japan in your (rented) Nissan GT-R. Yes you read right, you can now rent a new Nissan GT-R in Japan to see what all the fuss is about.
Check out this photo… Looks like Koei Rent-A-Car are putting in a little track time before they hand over the keys to customers. Why not!?
As for pricing, Koei weren’t immediately responding to inquiries on this but we’ll let you know soon.
Update: We have spoken to Koei this morning. Pricing is 60,000 yen for 24hrs plus mileage and is available to members only. Not sure what that last part is but I’m a member of Blockbuster if that helps.

Jay Leno takes his first look at the new Nissan GT-R, seems skeptical at first but can’t seem to get that smile off his face after he starts driving it. Jay gets emotionally attached to cars and is man enough to admit it! What a guy…
