Nissan's long-awaited GT-R won't be officially unveiled until next week's Tokyo Motor Show, but details (and this December's Motor Trend cover shot) are already starting to leak out. (Per AutoBlog, credit for the leak goes to an overeager Mazda press rep, who released the image to promote CX-9, which is also touted on the cover as SUV of the year.) (And which, by the way, is a very solid ride.) Highlights of the GT-R: a twin-turbo 3.8-liter V-6 cranking out 473 hp, zero to 60 times of 3.5 seconds, and a top price of less than $80,000. Unfortunately, no word yet on when it'll be available stateside, but we have a few other options to tide you over.
