.. is it me or is this thing really ugly ?

this is what happens when you're investing a lot in useless, unpractical, based-on-fashion-only, gluttonous cars. how come other big car companies don't have this sort of (major) problems ? I don't see VAG, Toyota or BMW in deep financial trouble..
this "have fun while you can, don't think about tomorrow" philosophy doesn't always work as it should, ay America ?

oh, yes ! finally ! it has arrived ! the day when people start to realize that "pimped up" SUV's are the most hideous cars ever !.. the first one (the "Urban Whip" - like in what ? horse whip ?) really utterly looks like an XVIII-th century wagon.

so I just want to thank these guys for finally showing that their work is (and has always been) "bull caca".

.. I really don't see how they expect to counter Porsche's claims that they used normal tyres on the runs with this video.. I'd like to see them actually tape the moment when they mount the tyres on the car that is then taken out for a lap. you know, like Audi did when they did that spot for the Quattro system at the ski jump ramp. that would be something !

now, I am quite a Porsche fan and I do think and accept that the GT-R is (or could be) faster than the 911 Turbo - and I also think that Porsche's attempt to put Nissan's claims in doubt is ..at least "clumsy", but I also think that Nissan are taking this too far with their sarcasm. even if they have a faster car (and if they do, why not accept a shootout ?), they mustn't forget Porsche's history, pedigree and racing heritage - that they are quite far from equalling.

and in the end, it's a question of philosophy: Nissan wanted to make a car that was easy to drive and help even a (very) clumsy driver get the most out of it. Porsche's philosophy is to make driving fun and rewarding.. just do a lap of any track in both cars and then see which one makes you feel better about your skills..
