More Power In Store for 2012, Spec-M Named for Japan Market: The Nissan GT-R EGOIST

Well we did mention that the SpecM name was tentative and today we’ve heard another rumor from sources close to Nissan that the R35 GT-R “Gentleman’s Edition” will launch in the Japanese market as the Nissan GT-R Egoist. While the name seems insane to us it’s not too far outside the bounds of Japanese naming schemes so that we’d completely rule it out. The SpecM nameplate is likely to be kept in markets outside Japan however so don’t completely cross it off your wish list just yet… On the topic of rumors from sources close to Nissan Japan, here’s another we’ve just heard.

After seeing this figure making its way around blogs and forums one might start quoting it as fact by now but to this date no figure has appeared either officially or leaked. In the true spirit of it not being over ’til the fat lady sings, we’re now told by our reliable sources that 530ps – 540ps is more accurate. I’ll leave that last one out there…
