Sorry GT-R fans you have a great/ phenomenal track car that even a monkey could drive, but for me it is not a 'drivers' car,instead it is a representation of the 'playstation' generation.

I agree, it is a car that is much easier to drive fast.

I thought it was proven that the GTR was faster than the Z06, Why do you keep saying the Z06 is faster? u mad?

Proven by who? Bench racers and crappy magizines? The two REAL WORLD vids I have seen were in the ZO6's favor.

July 2008 BMW Roundel magazine (page 30) reported that the Nissan GT-R that posted the 7:29 lap time at the Ring was a 693 HP version of the car. I don't think Nissan is making that engine package available to the general public.
The 480 hp Nissan GT-R posted a best lap time at the Ring of 7:35, still 7 seconds faster than a Porsche 996GT2, but well off the 7:29 posted by the Nissan GT-R Ring "ringer."
Now Chevy steps up to the plate with the ZR1 and turns a 7:26! The car was driven by a GM engineer no less. Do you think they could knock a second or two off the lap time if Johnny O'Connell or Jan Magnussen were at the wheel?

not to mention how bad of a hit the company and GT-R will take if the car people are buying isnt what was advertised.
the GT-R is far from a ringer. b/c its faster then some of yall favs cars doesnt make it a "ringer" it makes it the better, faster car

maybe you should. b/c the more gt-rs get on the road and encouters Z06's we will get to see Nisssan wasnt llying.
we all know that the Z06 will beat the GT-R in the top end. but between 0-110mph. the GT-R is going to have the edge
either way. if you want a str8line beast. get a Z06. if you want a scapel for the track get a GT-R
