those wheels dont flow with the car at all. i dont know what it is about them but they just look so wrong on that car. also the A-pillar would have looked better if it was painted the body color. anyone know why the left it black?

Well, why didn't they paint the pillars on TSX's or TL's?

Whoever took that pic of the GT-R, why didn't they wave and shout and ask them for a chance to sit in the GT-R.
I also can't see the plates of any of the cars that well. Is this in CA?

I'm sure shouting and waving is quite popular among the hot rod crowd of your generation, but I don't see it doing shit for todays market.

^ Has Michigan manufacturer plates ... but nowhere near Michigan. 
Also a RHD vehicle...
I assume the 2 vents in the hood is to feed the turbochargers.

IMHO, the 911 Turbo is indeed the best benchmark on which to develop the new GT-R. 
Looks like I will be digging into the Home Equity till to make a purchase on this one.
