Just another Godzilla sighting at the Nurburgring? Nope. This appears to be a lightly camouflaged Nissan GT-R SpecM prototype. The SpecM is supposed to be on the other side of the R35 range from the GT-R SpecV we tested earlier: It's the gentleman's GT-R if such a thing is possible.
We've heard that the GT-R SpecM will have more compliant suspension tuning and more sumptuous interior tailoring. Early reports tell us that SpecM GT-Rs can be highly personalized with specially-hued leathers and paint options. The graphic camo on the front and rear bumpers appears to hide some subtle visual revisions to the standard GT-R.
The GT-R SpecM is pegged for a debut at next month's Tokyo Motor Show.

i don't see a difference besides the cool zebra camo. They should have wrapped the whole car in the cool zebra scheme.
What Nissan needs to put out is a 2.5-liter V6 version for the commoner, with regular steel construction. ya.

@billt9
They already do that. It's called the Nissan Skyline or Infiniti G37 in American speak.....

The 2.5 V6 is bit too expensive to import. Due to U.S. emission especially in California. If the 2.5 V6 in Asia has about 230 hp to 260 hp when it comes to U.S it will tune down to about 200hp to 210hp. Look at Lexus IS250. The IS250 is not a commoner's car. The IS can easliy get up to about $40,000+

Although SpecV focuses on reducing weight SpecM be focused on increasing comfort. Expect to see a revised suspension package, a little more polarized a city tour calendar, in addition to the interior updated with new options of finishes and colors, and the seats are unique and special items. SpecM it will all be on the adjustment, and as such, almost all cars will be different.
