Autoblog have been participating in the Nissan North America media launch of the 2009 Nissan GT-R and have had the car to themselves on and around Reno/Fernley Raceway to get a feel for what it’s like. Starting out at Incline, just north of Lake Tahoe Nevada they see what the car is like on road before taking it to the track.

I highly recommend this article as far as first drive articles go it’s up there with the best. To go with it Autoblog have a great photo gallery of the GT-R surrounded by desert.

So when’s the Australian media launch Nissan Australia?
