subject: Chicago Nissan News: Local Gt-r Dealers Will Feature Upgraded 2011 Model [print this page] The market for sports cars has seen less attention as of late as drivers, companies and government advocates have turned the spotlight on fuel efficiency. But that doesnt mean the sports car as we know it has disappeared; in fact, its only taken a back seat for a little bit as manufacturers work on developing new technologies that could eventually offer the power weve come to expect from sports cars, coupled with the great fuel economy technology manufacturers around the world are launching.
Its really the entire package that makes a sports car what it is. Power and smooth handling are major parts of the driving experience, and the style associated with these beautiful vehicles offers an aesthetic experience like no other.
One of my favorite sports cars on the market today has to be the Nissan GT-R, launched only two years ago. But the news today is that your Chicago Nissan dealership will soon feature a highly modified GT-R, one that leverages new mechanical and equipment upgrades to make the GT-R one of the most affordable, reliable sports cars on the market. The 2011 Nissan GT-R will be available for a test-drive in the coming year at your Chicago Nissan dealer.
Chicago Nissan drivers are sure to love some of the upgrades Nissan has added to the 2011 GT-R. A revised navigation system, recalibrated suspension settings and an improved-flow catalyst system are just a few of the big mechanical updates included with the 2011 GT-R. The navigation updates will include a new HDD-based CARWINGS navigation system that features enhanced entertainment options and a USB port with iPod connectivity. Chicago used cars better watch out; once youve driven the new GT-R, my guess is itll be unlikely youll be able to live without it.
As for the improved suspension, Nissan says the 2011 GT-Rs suspension now offers "enhanced, premium quality ride comfort, while still providing the driver with a feeling of direct contact with the road surface." Front shock absorbers and springs will provide better accuracy, while the GT-R also features strengthened functionality around the stiff rear suspension radius rod bushings. With updates like these, the test-drive experience at your Chicago Nissan dealer is sure to be unmatched.
Previously only available on the hardcore GT-R SpecV, the new GT-R features rear diffusers with cooling ducts that improve cooling performance around the rear floor area. The 2011 GT-R SpecV will also include revised shock absorber settings that enhance "the characteristic combination of supple ride comfort and flat, predictable handling."
Nissans dedication to improving all of its lines under the brand has become a big automotive trade media focus as of late. Beyond the facelift well see on the new GT-R, Nissan is also launching several different attempts at fuel economy stardom that leverage electric technology to get the job done. But we all know that Nissan has built a reliable car for the length of its existence, so it still doesnt hurt to take a trip to your Chicago used cars dealership to take a look at some of the dependable Nissan vehicles it has to offer.
