I think it will be priced to compete with GTR so around $150K

Skyline has turbo.

In addition the R35 has weird ass stuff in it and one these are:
e.g. Nitrogen filled tyres (supposedly reduces rotational mass).

All about how much air you can feed into the engine (regardless of cylinders and capacity). The R35 GTR has twin turbos, which push air into the cylinders at above atmospheric pressure, meaning over 100% volumetric efficiency. If this NSX is still NA, then its volumetric efficiency will be below 100%. The more air you cram in, the more fuel you add in, giving you more power.

The Toyota Crown as a V12 but it sure as hell isn't going to be beating a lot of the current sport cars.

It's looks like a collection of some of the other footage as well as a bit of "town" driving.

Eventhough I won't be able to afford this NSX, it does sound very nice...
