This will make Ponuh angry but I don't care.
I know some of us have discussion about previous GTR Skylines on here. What do you guys think of the R35? It's finally coming to US in 2008 (2009 model) for $80,000...
I doubt it will break records like the previous Skylines, but I do think it comes with a lot of cool shit. This list of factory parts is just damn impressive. lol @ R mode

DisclaimerVDC-R cannot prevent accidents due to abrupt steering, carelessness, or dangerous driving techniques. Always drive safely.
Transmission

• Fully automatic shifting or full sequential manual control via gearshift or steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
• Dual clutch design changes gears in less than 0.5 second (0.2 second in R mode).
• Downshift Rev Matching (DRM).
• Predictive pre-shift control (in R mode) based on throttle position, vehicle speed, braking and other information.

• Electronically controlled variable-rate shock absorbers. High-accuracy progressive-rate coil springs.
• Front double-wishbone/rear multi-link configuration with aluminum members and rigid aluminum subframes.
• Hollow front and rear stabilizer bars.
