So here it is the so-called Porsche Turbo killer the 2009 Nissan GT-R (Skyline). The Nissan GT-R will prove to be a real competitor with its super car performance.

Nissan is touting that the twin turbo V6 engine in the GT-R will produce 473 hp and 433 lbs of torque. This all wheel drive beast is said to do 0-60 mph in about 3.5 seconds and a top speed of about 192 mph.

The Nissan GT-R Skyline had nothing to prove with its already legendary handling. The only downside in my mind is the 6 speed GT6 dual clutch automatic transmission with paddle shifters on the steering wheel without a manual transmission option.

Well until this rocket ship hits the States, the Porsche Turbo and the other monsters that already roam out streets are safe. But, with a rumored MSRP of $80,000, this could prove to be a real threat to the already kings of the hill.
