NISSAN GT-R Model 2012, more elaborated GT-R (1) Original text in Japanese by Toshifumi Watanabe

What manufacturers have to do is to make every effort to meet customer’s needs.”From the beginning to the end, this eloquent engineer expressed his philosophy sometimes ardently, sometimes reservedly until he modestly ended the presentation saying “I might be a little bit too arrogant...” As always, the beautifully prepared Power Point documents were almost totally disregarded. Instead, he drew sketches on a white board to explain the points. This is his usual style of presentation, which is not typical as a car engineer; however, I think it’s attractive. “Do you mean that, I put a question, GT-R’s engineering is conventional ?”
