Post GT-R Already has "HKS 570 HP" Package out, warranty-backed.. pics/article

Are any of you guys gonna pick up a GT-R or wait for the all-new AMG's coming in the next 2 or so years? Or maybe the new GT-R V-Spec or HKS package equipped cars?

The HKS car has power upped to 570 and has other upgrades.. its warranty backed supposedly also... the V-Spec should have atleast 570 HP also...

that warranty/tranny issue nissan has on this is rediculous, why build an alleged supercar when you can use anything super on it?
