2008 Nissan Skyline GT-R Testing At Goodwood Festival

With all the commotion yesterday on the BMW 1-Series Coupe, we kinda forgot to post this picture featuring the 2008 Nissan Skyline GT-R or simply GT-R that was spotted at the Goodwood Festival of Speed last weekend. The prototype was driven in the Supercar run by Nissan’s Executive Vice President in charge of Product Planning and Business Strategy, Carlos Tavares. The GT-R, due to be unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 2007, is one of the most anticipated sports cars of the year.

Based on the 2005 Tokyo GT-R Proto concept, the GT-R promises to offer Porsche 911 Turbo performance and dynamics for 911 money. Unlike its Skyline GT-R predecessors, for the first time in its history, the new GT-R will be designed as a specific body-style, and not derived from the Skyline range. Another first for the GT-R is that it will be a car sold globally and not exclusively in RHD markets (Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK). -Check out scoop videos of the Nissan GT-R here and here.
