    Will the GTR be coming to Africa?

    I'm actually thinking about getting myself a GTR, but I don't know if it will be made available to the market here. The old E34 Skyline GTR had be imported privately if you wanted one. I saw one in Hong Kong it was a really good looking car for me, far nicer than the E92 M3 IMO.

    Does anybody have contacts that may know this info?

    Sorry Mike, no info, but I also think it is a very good looking car. I will consider one in a couple of years. Enough cars for me hopefully till 2010.

    Re: Will the GTR be coming to Africa?

    Plans are to bring the car here but Nissan is awaiting confirmation by several dealerships if they will invest the $$$$ for the newer test equipment, ect that the car will require. There is also the age old problem of fuel quality in SA and owners may be forced to run octane boosters in order to uphold their warrantys...

    Yep.. as Carn above said, they considering it. 'Problem' is with the dealers and the necessary investments apparently.

    Suprised you'd be interested in this car Mike. Enjoy
