^^Oh man, that thing sounds awesome. But for that price, I would get an audi r8. Strictly for aesthetics tho.

I must confess, every video i usually see the gtr in, its getting beat by something. The zr1 vids ive seen are usually puttin a helluva beat down on the gtr. Then again the zr1 is uaully puttin a beat down on alot of the **** it races. Id rather have the vette zr1.

In the last motortrend/Car&Driver it was just a tad faster than a 2011 Z06 but keep in mind the ZR1 is 120k+ too.

First of all ZR-1 is a V8 block and the car is fiber glass central. Plz are you kidding me let Nissan create a bigger block it would smack the Vette all day.

Pound 4 Pound GTR is the CHAMP (V6 Block).

How so is that a comparison, when I wasn't make a comparison. All I indicated was that the ZR-1 is a V-8 block therefore it is unfair to compare the two. And in the end my opinion the GTR is pound 4 pound the King, love it.

B itch ur retarded, lol. Is the lfa not a 4.8 v10? The zr1 is 120k but I would think 90k vs 120k is still in the same ball park. I just love the zr1. Hands down awesome car. But obviously so is the gtr. I just wouldn't call it king.

ZR-1 is thirty-grand more than GODZILLA, but as you saw in the video it gave the spanking to the ZR-1. I must admit thought that I didn't know the Lexus super car was a V-8 block, either way both cars (Corvette & LFA) got spanked.

GTR is the BOSS.

It's not a v8. Both those cars were modded out the *** crack. U said zr1 vs gtr wasn't fair cuz zr1 is v8... I say the gtr is awd vs rwd so wut? Is it fair now? I just mentioned the zr1 becuz everybody n they momma compare the gtr to the z06 and zr1, oem. I saw the vid but am not sure of the second race. Gtr smashed in 2nd race but 1 St race was awesome and seemed more realistic between those 2 considering mods.

I've seen videos of the pre 2012 GTRs getting spanked left and right by even just Z06's with the right mods. Those things are beasts once they get modded. Nonetheless, i'd still take the Nissan

Cause of the difficulty I'd take a viper/vette...

GT-R too bulky and no stick...

I'm mad at Nissan the GT-R could of been a whole lot sleaker

As you would expect, the GT-R gained most ground during the launch. Nothing surprising there.

The GT-R is a amazing car for the price... just not the kind of sports car I'd want if I had a 100k budget.
