yes, many manufacturs test cars in new mexico cus of the heat. they have to test the cars reliablity in the worst possible scenario and new mexico gets very hot. there was an article in motortrend about spy photographers a few months back who camp out for sneak peaks.

yes, and nem mexico has long, wide-open roads where there is little population, and that is very useful when they are trying to keep covers on something...

ACTUAL VIDEO OF THE GT-R WHILE IN CALI

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...hotopanel..1.*

You can actually hear how the GT-R sounds towards the end of the video. Time to play the lotto!

Edit: Edmunds saw shift paddles on the steering column... please dont do what mitsubishi is doing with the Evo X. Auto takes the fun out of everything dammit...

i was gonna get the RB26DETT motor but wont have the finances for that, so im paying my respects by dropping the GTS-T engine in my S14. was thinking about the R33 import, but settling for just the engine
