There will be no update today.
I have doubts the new Nissan will even be revealed today.

There is still plenty of time before the 10th of June is completely over in the seas of UTC-12
 
Predictions I'm not understanding in this thread:

- The 2015 LMP1 car - As many have stated, Nissan has made it very clear that the car will be under wraps for quite some time. I can't recall a past LMP being revealed so early before it's debut, and really, the car under the sheet doesn't look all that LMP-ish to me.

- Cars that look very different from the sheet - Nissan only recently put this covered car up... Why exactly would they tease a car, namely it's shape, and then change it all of a sudden...?

- Cars that were already unveiled - The announcement states "Each car — from the Skyline Sport Coupe and Fairlady Z, to the GT-R NISMO GT3 — represents a chapter of Nissan’s story. On June 10th we open the next chapter.” Why, exactly, would a "new chapter" be something that's already been announced, or even fully unveiled...? I think this may also put an R36 put of the question...

The fact that it lists separate models or families as "chapters" tells me that it's going to be a completely new model/family, and the fact that they're making a big deal of it, and putting it in a racing game tells me it's going to be something performance-oriented. As I said before, it's probably not a new GT-R, hence "new chapter for Nissan", and plus, the shape looks a bit too sleek to be an evolution of the Skyline/GT-R family.

I strongly believe, and would be willing to put money on this being a completely new model. The only thing I'm not 100% on is if it's a VGT or FT-1-esque concept. Considering the timeframe and potential launch window, I lean a bit more to the VGT side, but it could still be either or in my eyes.

Only a few hours to find out.

Could it be that of all the top car manufacturer's in Japan only Nissan lack the concept of a supercar?
 
Well, it clearly isn't the GT-R NISMO, nor the GT-R LM NISMO (dammit), but appears to be a brand new concept car, or the VGT.

And don't say that "concept" and "VGT" are the same in this context, there is the very real possibility that it could just be a concept.
 
On GT facebook page :
"LOS ANGELES - On Monday, June 16, we will reveal the next chapter in the Nissan story to an audience that has always shared our passion for performance"
Full reveal the 16th :)
