don't they do that to lower the insurance premium associated with the car, say it is slower than it actually is, mercedes is usually a full second off of their advertised 0-60 times

0-60 is not a good metric. It is what you can put down without spinning hte tires or wheel hopping. 0-100mph-0 is a much better metric of how fast a car actually is. As for the GTR, once again I say... Sandbagging just like they have done before!

0-60 in 3.3 seconds

Saw that, this thing will be insane. Agree with San, Nissan loves to "mislead" about the Skyline power numbers. They use to do similar things with the Z32TT's.
