According to a href="http://autoblog.com/make/nissan"Nissan/a, it takes exactly 530 horsepower and 448 pound-feet of torque, coupled to a sophisticated electronic all-wheel-drive system and a dual-clutch transmission.brbrPut more simply in actual dollars and cents, that will cost you $89,950. For those unaware, that's the sum Nissan is asking for its updated a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/gtr"2012 GT-R/a, which recently a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/11/17/2012-nissan-gt-r-la-2010/"made its live American debut/a at the a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/la-auto-show/"2010 LA Auto Show/a. The Japanese automaker has kindly provided a digital readout from an electronic measurement device from Digitek to silence the doubters (above). As you can strikeclearly/strike squint and see, the GT-R hit 60 miles per hour in 2.9 seconds and 100 kilometers per hour (62 mph) in exactly three seconds.brbrYour move, a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/zr1"Corvette ZR1/a.brbrbrdivpstrongGallery: a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/la-2010-2012-nissan-gt-r"LA 2010: 2012 Nissan GT-R/a/strong/pa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/la-2010-2012-nissan-gt-r/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/01-2012-nissan-gt-r-live_thumbnail.jpg" alt="2012 Nissan GT-R" title="2012 Nissan GT-R"/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/la-2010-2012-nissan-gt-r/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/02-2012-nissan-gt-r-live_thumbnail.jpg" alt="2012 Nissan GT-R" title="2012 Nissan GT-R"/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/la-2010-2012-nissan-gt-r/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/03-2012-nissan-gt-r-live_thumbnail.jpg" alt="2012 Nissan GT-R" title="2012 Nissan GT-R"/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/la-2010-2012-nissan-gt-r/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/04-2012-nissan-gt-r-live_thumbnail.jpg" alt="2012 Nissan GT-R" title="2012 Nissan GT-R"/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/la-2010-2012-nissan-gt-r/"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/05-2012-nissan-gt-r-live_thumbnail.jpg" alt="2012 Nissan GT-R" title="2012 Nissan GT-R"/a/divbrdivpstrongGallery: a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2012-nissan-gt-r-4/"2012 Nissan GT-R/a/strong/pa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2012-nissan-gt-r-4/#3581684"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/03-2012-nissan-gt-r_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title=""/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2012-nissan-gt-r-4/#3581698"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/16-2012-nissan-gt-r_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title=""/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2012-nissan-gt-r-4/#3581695"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/13-2012-nissan-gt-r_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title=""/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2012-nissan-gt-r-4/#3581696"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/14-2012-nissan-gt-r_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title=""/aa href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2012-nissan-gt-r-4/#3581697"img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/15-2012-nissan-gt-r_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title=""/a/divbr[Source: Nissan]pa href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/12/02/2012-nissan-gt-r-officially-goes-0-60-in-2-9-seconds/" rel="bookmark"Continue reading em2012 Nissan GT-R officially goes 0-60 in 2.9 seconds/em/a/pp style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both"a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/12/02/2012-nissan-gt-r-officially-goes-0-60-in-2-9-seconds/"2012 Nissan GT-R officially goes 0-60 in 2.9 seconds/a originally appeared on a href="http://www.autoblog.com"Autoblog/a on Thu, 02 Dec 2010 13:01:00 EST.
