This super icon which currently boasts 485 hp and 434 pound-feet of torque could get a power increase that should put it at the 500+ hp level, according to the publication autoweek.But was this necessary? Does it have enough power already? can it really be improved? A stock GT-R already runs a quarter mile in under 12 seconds.
Along with the rumored power upgrade, it is also being said that the little monster will be available with new interior trim options as well as a much higher quality grill with carbon-fiber inserts in it. The car aerodynamics could also be upgraded with the purpose of directing more airflow into the engine bay.
While we look forward to see the upgraded beast, it also makes us wonder, how much horsepower is enough? Is there such a concept as too much horsepower? Lets hear your point of view on this one rev or die fans

you know when you wrote "500hp...but is it necessary?" i was almost forced to revoke your mancard and beat you senseless with your car's dipstick like that commercial for castro oil. But you managed to redeem yourself at the end with your comment and/or question "is there such thing as too much?" So to the "is it necessary?" question. no its not necessary, but if the alternative is to sit and drive a honda civic with 115 hp. then yes, yes it is. "is there such a thing as too much?" not really. I mean if your high hp daily driver is getting you tickets daily just from going from 1st to 2nd gear, you might wanna rethink your defintion of a daily driver. But out on the safe zones and the track, you can leave someone by 20 car lengths and you will still be unsatisfied by the power. your gonna wanna push it just that little bit more. SO this beast is just the beginning. hopefully, when the car is released, the dealer will believe me when i say i have the money to buy the car and he'll allow me to rev it on a test drive before i die.
