3.8TT Sounds A LOT better, no love for the manual though???

You forgot about the potential of an RB26 vs the potential of a VQ. And the VQ is like trololololo against the RB.

They should at "TR" after "G" at that point too.

Or just a 38TT instead and leave the GT-R to Nissan's flagship. I think they should still make a 4 door GT-R, detuned a bit, add a whole lot of luxury and make it the new Infiniti flagship in place of the old Q.

If you build it right with a V8 there's no need for TT! Like a 6.0 with a 6 speed MT or 7 speed AT and paddle shifters for instant response. TTs create a whole bunch of heat, I'd settle for cubic inches and quality parts so you don't have issues like OC....Gary

Relatives just picked up a new JX. Inside source told me the new G sedan is based on the C class and will have a 550-600hp VR powerplant.

I do not think we will be seeing increased Disablement.

Probably some FI action

I read in Car and Driver it's most likely going to be a twin turbo
