On old foundations it seems. Next step they'll be re-hiring Craig Lowndes.

Of course there are. There must be. Probably.

Mr Murphy is a very marketable commodity, on paper. 4 time Bathurst winner, household name in New Zealand... So a new carmaker could be encouraged to believe in this pilot's future prospects... Maybe..

Mr Murphy + Mr Schwerkolt + Pepsi Max + Holden+ Tekno = Not impossible

I'm sure the likes of Nissan would love to see one of their cars piloted by a household name, with a well-known sponsor plastered all over it.

Or, perhaps Nissan are looking for some solid results in their first season?

Greg Murphy faces a tough V8 Supercars decision as Kelly Racing moves from Holden to Nissan

Team Kelly Racing co-owner Rick Kelly says Greg Murphy must sever his long-standing ties with Holden in Australia and New Zealand if he wishes to stay with the team next year ahead of its landmark move to Nissan.

Depends perhaps how deep the Red Bull ties are to Mr Stoner... maybe a season at STR would be more likely?
