I don't think Nissan have posted any performance figures yet....... this is probably the reason. All thats been posted are journos tests, the latest wheels mag ran it and got 5.6 0-100 which is pretty **** considering the 350 did it in 5.7.... if i get it it'll feel exactly like my 350 then.......... Funny thing is they mentioned a few times that traction was a big issue. (this is the same issue I had with the 350 that used to annoy me - either rev high and spin the wheels or get hardcore axle tramp)

I reckon it is all due to the financial crisis, they have brought in as little options as possible to keep the amount of stock they need to a bare minimum. Thats why they don't have a touring and track anymore, or any different interior colours etc. Once they start selling more cars, then I'm sure the wheels and other options will be brought in.

The 19's will probably cost so much to buy though... it probably won't be worth getting them in. The tires shouldn't be a problem here either, there are plenty of other cars on sale in aus with 19" - 245, 275's on them.
