Post VIDEO: It's good to be the King: Jay Leno drives the Nissan GT-R
Filed under: Sports/GTs, Videos, Nissan Click above to watch Jay Leno enjoy his time with the Nissan GT-R Autoblog is brimming with proof that Jay Leno is the luckiest car guy in the world. His legendary garage is only attainable in our wildest dreams, so when something like a Nissan finds its way (temporarily) into his stable, it deserves note. The latest installment of Jay Leno's Garage is dedicated to the Nissan GT-R, with the late-night talk show host poring over the details and grilling Nissan's product planner, John Weiner, on what makes the GT-R special.

I used to work on the NBC lot and I would see Jay drive a different car every day, the only car I saw more than once was a Viper. For him to say he wants to get emotionally envolved means alot.

My friends dad ordered it. He's getting it late August, early September. I'm jealous. I didn't believe it and then...they showed me the receipts.

No, he didn't, those weren't supercars from factory. they could be with tuning but no super car. Sports car? yeah. Japanese muscle car? yeah sure. Super car? no

A supercar is going to have at the minimum of 400hp from factory, and it will be very luxurious on the inside OR completly spartan but very organic/natural/(artsy?). R32 is really just a inline 6 rwd/awd maxima. Don't tell me it isn't. The R34 was close very close. I would consider a MINES R34 a super car. Or a R34 R-tune, or Z-tune, or a 400R a super car. But not an R34 GT-R. You COULD say its a poor mans supercar, because it can easily be modified for more power, but then again it really isn't due to an unimpressive interior. While it was really nice and functional, to me it just doesn't have the 'wow thats fucking cool'. Honestly calling an R34 a supercar is like calling the same year BMW M3 a supercar, they just don't make the cut.
