I was wondering if Nissan would try to get the GTR up there HP-wise with the other super-sport exotics. Not to say that the GTR doesn't have the goods to run with the big boys, but the 800 HP mark seems to be the fad with the SSE crowd. I wonder how much higher the price tag will be with that change...

As for the next Z, I am indeed curious as to which direction they go with the engine. I am also curious as to whether they will name it in regards to engine displacement, as per tradition, or if they will go the route of the Q50/Q70 and just tack on a higher number so as to give the car the impression of progressing.
