Yes, I realise it's for race use only, but there's a buyer for everything!

If it's being imported for motorsport use it can *never* be road registered. Thems the rules boys. Otherwwise you get to pay a stack more on import duties and trying to get the thing to comply to adrs.

Didn't I read that the even the road going version for release next year will require an engine tear down / rebuild every 100k ?
Something to do with the plasma cylinder bores and special pistons. She won't exactly be an economical proposition if that's part of the running costs.

I'd say the real reason it's offered as race only is no one can comply them yet. These will be importable for road use at some stage.

The Americans are actually getting the GT-R cheaper than it is in Japan, Porsche 911 Turbo performance for Corvette money and it's faster than both. It's about 1/2 the price of an equivilent 911.
