We have to wait for pricing, but I believe the IS-F and GT-R will be within 5k of eachothers starting price.

If an IS350 goes well into the mid 40's, expect the IS-F to be considerably higher.

FYI 450 awd hp is not going to compete with a Ford GT, Z06, F430, etc.

If you would of read the comments in the video you would of known the only mod both cars had were intakes. So I would still stick by my logic....lol

Don't get me wrong man, I'm not a Skyline GTR person lol! But judging from what the R34 GT-R is capable of with only 280hp (more like 330hp actually), it's able to keep up with the C5 Z06, F360, etc, on a track. That's why I think the upcoming GTR will be able to compete with the big boys, even if it has 50 less hp than others. But, hey, I could be wrong!
