When I see these nice demo cars I think thats nice. But when you look at the GT-R35 its incredible how expensive it is, but I guess some can afford it.

Mines Nissan GT-R

Lets call it an easy 30,000,000 yen = About $300,000.00
Thats $220,000 in parts that is conservative estimate.

2010. the new GT-R is on sale.
Price has now hit 15,000,000 yen for some models.

And the new club track edition may change your idea about tuning at all.

Just don't expect it to be cheaper.
The rear wing is 817,950 which is double mines price.
Rear Bumper is 303,450

The interior is where it all gets interesting.
6 point roll cage is 402,150
Nismo Cool racing seat is 929,250!!!!!!!! WTF! 10 grand for a seat! With air con though!
Door Trim 576,450
Trim panels are 657,300
Data logger 369,600
thats 30 grand for interior right there. Well actually interior removal.
Slicks 315,000

Maybe $400,000 USD is a better estimate.

Anyway... dream on or live the dream... your choice.
