GT-R vs GT3

More interesting info from a well respect mag overseas. Looks like we, P-cars and Z06's, might have another 'super' car in the mix. We love competition right...? I gotta give props where props are due. IMO...Ugly A** car compared to Porsche and Corvette but does defy the laws of physics with its performance.

Can't wait to see what the state side GTR's are going to be like...cool, high tech ride that could be a great DD but I just can't get past the face only a mother could love. I'm looking forward to seeing the head to head vids with the Z06 too.

I want to see some testing with Z06 vs GT-R, about same price range.

3 year wait for a new one in Japan !

For looks I personally find the metal grey and white one quite ok. and performance is unbeatable

DJ,

I think even a mother would have a hard time loving something as fugly as the GT-R.

Reminds me of the joke, "baby was so ugly that when he was born the doctor slapped the husband."

This car is butt ugly. It looks like and has the aerodynamic appearance of a BRICK.
Why is it being compared to the GT3? It is a 6 banger turbo so therefore compare it to the 997 TT.
Hell I'll take a C6 Z06 Vette over this GT-R any day.

I wish they would bring the R34 over, that was a masterpiece.
