The reason why that car will never work & never really has in the UK is because its fucking expensive (their talking £85,000 if they launch it with the 4.0 TT) and nobody would pay that for a Nissan.
If they release it for £85k, they have got serious, serious problems, namely the Audi R8, second hand Gallardos, Second hand F360's, 911 Turbos, BMW M6s, GT3's, Bentley GT's, 63 AMG's, SL/CL65 etc etc.
Lets be honest, the only real ppl who are going to buy this are going to be the wealthier people who are into the modding scene, and if your going to pump tens of thousands of pounds into a car already worth £85k, I think all of the cars listed above would be far better, more respected options.
I mean, a 996 with X50 kit would set you back £55k? plough another £30k or so in and the Skyline, or probably ANY other SUPER CAR wouldnt touch it under any circumstances.
No doubt this R35 will be superb, well it shud be the time they have spent developing it but i think its going to come down with a serious case of "NSX Fever"

Not in Japan they wouldn't - the japs will love this, which is where it's main market will be.
