The 2011 Nissan GT-R. First impressions is that it has been starving itself because I can start the see its ribs on the front fenders. Along with the new rippled bumper and other new changes to the body, Nissan says that it has increased downforce by 10% and and reduced drag by .01 of a G. It's funny because all the changes are minute and looks almost just like the older model. They have also gone with the new trend like Porsche and Audi before that and put LED lights under the main headlights.
Some other advances include an increased boost and with a re-calibrated ECU, the engine now runs from 485 hp in the older model to, wait for it, 523 hp. Something tells me that with the new modifications and the retuned suspension, the GT-R's Nürburgring time, which was equivalent to the Corvette ZR-1, will be even better.
