For the money, and it being Jap, it should be quick IMO.I'll stick to Fords, thanks.

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 21y 2m 14d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 22/02/08 12:44 AM Share Posted 22/02/08 12:44 AM In Japan the car is AU$85,000 and is not subject to our massive taxes on taxes on taxes that we have here. 10% import Duty, then 10% GST, then 50% LCT, then stamp duty.I think the bare bones landed cost for the car would be $120-140k for Nissan Oz.A mate of mine is bringing in 3 this year under SEVS, and should have one landed in the next week or so. He thinks the price that Nissan will be selling them will be closer to $200k due to the price he is paying for them in japan and all the taxes.Saleen, I think you are being unrealistic about your expectations for a factory built car. There is no car on earth under $100k that will run 11's, and very few that will run 12's.This is an affordable everyday supercar, that will hose most things under $400k and is much more user friendly and practical.....dam I am talking myself into keeping it now I like the way the Jap's have designed the speed limiters. It is based of GPS and will give unlimited speeds only at recognised Japanease race tracks, I am sure it will be different to the Oz spec ones. They have also already made a speed cut bypass.
