The first of how many I wonder?
I reckon we could see the second Epsilon Euskadi on the grid, and that's fifth reserve at the moment.

I wouldn't guarantee the first one being there! |

Of course I buy green cars, my Aston is green, my MGB is green, my Disco Sport is green, oh, that's not what you meant by green?

Damn, loved the look and sound of the Euskadi.  At this rate Fran will be happy, there might be a Saleen racing. |

Yes, sadly they have abandoned a DBR9 for that!

Technologically, the Nissan GTR is far more interesting than the Aston, I think it looks ace and it makes a very pleasant change from yet another Aston Martin/Corvette and it adds some variety. What's not to like? |

We are all entitled to an opinion, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course... Or the designers Labrador in the case of the Datsun.... But I agree it will be great to have some new blood in GT racing, we haven't had any new cars for a while, the current crop are all getting a bit long in the tooth now. |

As a road car you may have a point, but given the relative costs I would think the 350 could give the Aston a run for its money.
As a racer, the Nissan looks every bit as good as the Aston and points towards a brighter future for GT1 with the new Ford GT and the expected Lambo.
The Vette, Aston etc have been good value, but the time has come for some new blood.

What's not to like? But sadly as with all racing cars most of the technology on the GTR will be banned from being used in race trim. |
