The GTR is much more expensive and much much fewer people can afford it. The demand will dry up much quicker than you think. 12,000 cars per year for a $70k sports car is not "low production".

still missing the point.. you can only mark up a 20K car so much. Supply and demand is a easy concept. You can't keep up demand of a 20K toyota vs a inconic car such as the GT-R. Also, if you read it properly... 6000 of that is going to Japan. Rest split between the world. You probably will not see more than 1 to 2 per dealer here and given the dealer network in the US for Nissan's not all dealers will get one if you do the math.
if you really want to talk markups try 150K to 200K over for a Scuderia and 200+K on a 599GTB. Those prices will hold if not go up given the euro vs $.
