Per Nissan: "Building on more than 40 years of NISMO performance expertise, the Armada NISMO excites driving enthusiasts with 460 horsepower — a 35-horsepower increase versus other versions (when using premium fuel only) — from its twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 engine1 and a louder, less restrictive exhaust. NISMO engineers also precisely retuned the electric power steering and Adaptive Electronic Air Suspension for more engaging and direct handling. Completing the dynamic upgrades, NISMO-specific forged wheels shod in NISMO-exclusive high-performance tires deliver greater traction and responsiveness."

It is difficult to overstate how ugly that is.

Neat. I always thought that the Nismo version of the Patrol available in other markets–primarily the Middle East–was cool, so I guess this isn't a terrible alternative.

Nissan still makes these? 

At least they're trying.  The current top-of-the-line Armada is pushing $82,000........this over $100,000?

I'm guessing under $100K, because over that mark seems steep - not that $99K isn't, either, but there's a psychological barrier at $100K.

It's even uglier when it passes you.
