Nissan to distribute next generation of GT-R in the United States

According to Nissan Motor President & CEO, Carlos Ghosn, the next generation of the famed GT-R is due to arrive in the United States under the Nissan brand, in line with the branding strategy of the group. The previous Nissan Skyline GT-R did not make it into the US market but was an instant hit elsewhere. In the 2001 Tokyo Auto Show, Nissan showcased a prototype concept of the next generation GT-R. With styling cues from the 350Z and the Infiniti G35 coupe, the next GT-R is expected to be launched officially in the 2007 Tokyo Auto Show. It could arrive in the United States in early 2008.
