Post Nissan GT-R SUV





http://www.egmcartech.com/2008...r-suv/



The people over at Best Car magazine have dreamed up a Nissan GT-R SUV and have started speculations that Nissan may be working on a possible Godzilla based crossover. The report says the SUV will be powered by the same 473hp engine and will be a 5-door hatchback targeted at the popular crossover market, mostly Porsche Cayenne buyers.

We doubt any of this is true but it’s fun to dream nonetheless. All we’re saying is that if Nissan could consider a four-door GT-R based Infiniti, why not a high-end Infiniti crossover.

What a sensational rag Best Car is. They're always putting out this kind of silliness complete with whack-looking renderings.

One thing if this was true. Man oh man, Nissan wouldn't have their head on straight seeing they can use the FX body anyways.

This might be someone's piece of cake, do the market research and find out.
