We can also say with authority that we're not surprised Nissan found enough people willing to fork over the serious cash necessary to make the company produce this mentalâŚ
Taking a Nissan GT-R to race a bunch of exotic supercars is beating a dead horse at this point. But what about its tall-boy equally-well-endowed brother, the Juke R?
