Four-Door GT-R Still a Possibility

Rumors of a GT-R saloon (Infiniti Q45 successor?) have been in existence even before the original R35 was released to the the public, and it appears that they are gaining momentum again.  The details seem to be the same as mentioned in the past: 4.5-5.0L V8 engine (probably out of the FX50), same GT-R twin-clutch gearbox, four-wheel drive, and a higher level of luxury in all areas.

Performance numbers are speculated at around 420hp, 0-60 in around five seconds, and a top speed somewhere around 170ish.  All are guesses of course because who actually knows if there is even a car in testing right now.  I just figured I would share this in case any of you will be in the market for a high-end Nissan/Infiniti sedan in the near future.
