If you can prove that the GTR has progressed over the past 40 years to what it is now, then maybe you have something. My guess is that you don't.
And its for this reason that we buy our 911's and not GTR's. 911's are ALWAYS the benchmark over the years, and this one off Nissan will ALWAYS be trying to catch up to it.

Same old 240ka. All talk. All ego.
Don't care if I have a crowd around my car.
Don't care about badging.
I've offered a few laps at the track, you didn't bite...made up a bunch of excuses...bottom line...you don't own one. Oh yeah...but you had "seat time". Are you accepting now?

If you really believe that people will crowd around you in awe over your GT-R, you're going to be in for a big shock.
Again, YOU seem to be the one with the badge issue.
Porsche owners in general do not care about crowd pleasing and attention. It's the reason why we bought a 911. It's simple and doesn't scream for attention like a green Lambo or red Ferrari. If you want some attention, you should buy one of those.

yeah ok,maybe you want to lok back through all the 911 vs GT-R threads here and see how many times some pcar owners resorted to "its just a nissan" after the GT-Rs facts, numbers and stats stacked against the 911

Still waiting for an answer here, given that they used a 911 Turbo during development, and the fact that the old GTR's were based on making a 959 on a budget.

well one thing has changed and the 911 TT is no longer the benchmark. the GT-R is. now porsche is the one playing catch up. its funny how some of you fanboys can make people dislike a car b/c of badge whoring.
ive always been a fan of many cars and brands but it was never based on the badge they wore.
a car is a car. and thats the way true car enthusiast see it. a badge doesnt make one car better than the other. well to some of you it does

My friend, you are seriously disillusioned. Show me an article, any article where they claim the GTR is the benchmark to beat for any car.

I would have thought that the GTR would have been faster accelerating. it got to 60mph as fast as the others but after that fell behind, well behind. so if you run one on the hwy in a z06 or 997TT you will win.

You can be a fan all you like, the fact of the matter is that you don't own either of these cars. The one owner we have on this site owns an GT3 RS and a GTR, and he is considering selling his current GTR for a c63 or v Spec (if and when it ever comes out). His RS is staying in place, just like most owners.
You have ZERO credibility. Sucks to be you.

i sure dont b/c the "NISSAN" blows your beloved 911 TT off the map. do you have a problem with that?
if you didnt then you wouldnt be hating on the GT-R. if it was just a mere Datsun/Nissan you wouldnt even waste your time comparing it to the 911 TT b/c you wouldnt see it as a competitior.
but we know thats not true, now dont we? or else you wouldnt have as many post as you do hating on the GT-R
now thats funny

Again as expected, no direct answer to my question. The only person doing badge whoring here is YOU.

now thats funnyAgain, spoken like a true mag racer! The GTR has not blown any TT off the map. You make it sound like its a Veyron or something
And I never compared your GTR to the 997TT, the media does and did. And so did Nissan when they developed it. I doubt I'd even look at one on the freeway because it'd be driven by an immature kid leasing it through his parents
My posts don't hate on the GT-R. They hate on fanboys like you, that don't own any high performance cars but come on here trolling as if they have an opinion that anyone cares about.

And your not understanding the fun to fly or for that matter fun to drive factor. I really think all these GR-R threads need to move to the Off topic since they no longer have anything to do with upkeep and tuning of the cars whose treads they show up in!

You've contributed nothing to this forum except stirring the pot. And that's okay. I'm bored today.
If anything, we ARE laughing at YOU. The more you post, the more you show that you don't own **** or have any experience behind the wheel of a nice car. It's as plain as day.
But that's ok 240. When the Nissan is finally yours, you will be king. Keep saving up those paychecks.
