Business Week did a write-up on Nissan's redesign of the GT-R sports car. Shiro Nakamura, Nissan's chief creative officer, said that the car had to really reflect Japanese culture and, the article notes, "the inspiration for the model's square lines and high-tech vents came from Gundam, the Japanese anime series featuring giant robots." The $69,850 automobile will be available in the US for the first time in June as well as Japan. Galleries of photos can be seen at Nissan USA's site and Motor Trend.
