You want to know what will happen with this car in the US and what will happen over time? Set the wayback machine to 1991 and look at the NSX. Great car, they'll sell a few, it'll be cool to see one on the road, and they'll slowly drop in price but hold well. There will be new cars that outperform it and the buzz will die down, just like everything else.

Ferrari people won't think about buying one and people buying a GTR won't think about buying a Ferrari (but compare it to one all the time).

In 10 years, the '19 Evo (or whatever the hot economy car is at the time) will be blowing the doors off the '09 GTR.
