I would like confirmation of this, especially since your article date is from April 2009

Surprising that no western publication has picked this up, hmmmmmmmmm

This sounds like a terrible idea in this economic climate.

The GTR roadster looks hot up above. So, what was the outcome of this? 2009 is almost over and that article was earlier this year.

Come on people.... GTR roadster for China release in '09????


Assume an article like this was released... Volk wheels, wider rear wheel wells and the gas cap on the wrong side of the car?

Oh BTW if anyone is interested I might be selling my GTR 4 door Wagoneer.

i was expecting that to be horrible but something about that just makes me tingle....

It must be the volks.... but just for traditions sake... and not selling out... they dont need to be making a roadster.

I know it's a photochop but why is the no parking sign a mirror image
