The GT-R uses the AWD attesa system that was improved upon with subsequent iterations of the previous skyline GT-R. The GT-R's VQ engine is an improvement over a VQ engine series that has been on Wards 10 best engine list since the beginning minus 1 or 2 years. Just because a platform or name change occurs, doesn't mean you throw out the experience Nissan has had building a sports car for 50+ years.
But like I said, good for Hyundai for attempting. Everyone has to start somewhere. I applaud their effort and hope they come up with a good car.
