i'm not a huge fan either but if i had the choice to pay less for a faster car I'd definitely do it. it's not like the gtr is super ugly

Yeah the GTR is faster than most supercars for a great price, but all supercars have more power than you will be able to use on the road. At that point its just matter of preference on styling and shit

Because if Im paying for a car that can do 190mph+ Im going to buy the one that looks better and has a more exciting driving experience. Considering I wont be going 0ver 150 very often speed doesnt matter very much

Almost everyone I've spoken to regarding the GTR has said it's thrilling to drive. I'm sorry you're too much of a "man" to drive a twin clutch setup, but there's no need to spew ignorance all over the place.

Drove a GTR about a week ago and I believe I am going to start racing one at the local raceway. In the recent year I have driven big AMG's, Ferrari's, Porches, etc… and without a doubt in my mind the fear that stuck me the first time jumping on the GTR was staggering. All the folks in here complaining about driving a computer can just keep on complaining because there is nothing in this world that drives like the GTR.

You're right. But there are a thousand and one car's that drive better. You better have some proof to back up that claim you jamoke.

It's thrilling to drive purely because of the speed, but you get over that quickly. it's nowhere near as fun and rewarding as most sports cars. I'll even admit that I was impressed with the amount of feel and feedback. I just didn't feel like I was in control, like I could make what would have been little mistakes and the car would keep them from happening, you can feel it's always correcting and always adjusting, which I couldn't stand. It's an amazing car for sure in terms of pure capability. But for a similar price I'd rather have a Z06, cayman r, exige, etc..

anyone know a price figure for the GTR nismo? after a quick google i only found 1 number, which was 120,000 pounds.

i would honestly rather take the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe for ~$100,000. its got 550hp compared to 595 or whatever the nismo has, and still does 0-60 in 4ish seconds. and it sounds magnificent and looks better than the gtr IMO

no, you're just a lying sack of shit. a car isn't 'fast' if it can't do 0-60 in 2.5-10 ish seconds.

Laf @ acceleration numbers.

incase you didnt know, the GTR is most formidable for handling, not straightline speed.

Blunt example: If you are familiar at all with Top Gear, look at where it stands on their Lap times board, and the cars that surround it. Then consider the prices of said cars.

what e55 do you have? the 2003 E55 AMG generally did just over 4 seconds (according to mercedes) and it cost a hell of a lot more than 20k

if its ten years old and has 50k on the engine i doubt it would still be doing just over four. when it was new, sure. but at that point it would have been worth ~74,000 so thats still a lot of money.

comparing the f-type r to the e55 is kinda apples and oranges to be honest. the f-type is a sports car, the e55 is a sedan with a big engine. but im glad you like it

I'm a badgewhore so to me this is just a Datsun, albeit a very fast Datsun yet still a Datsun.
And I don't think it's all that pretty.

Thank you sir. And I am not taking sides here. If I had that much money I doubt I would buy one honestly. It is a fantastic car but the C68 AMG just makes me smile so much. Just comes down to preference. Astons for example make me grow quite large with excitement.

I respect the shit out of the GTR for being such a high performance car that consistently beats out cars twice as expensive. That being said, I hate the car. to me it looks so rice burnerish and if im going to spend that kind of money on a car I want something sexy as hell that gets heads turning. I could personally give up performance for style. Granted though the car is probably fun as hell to drive.

my buddy has a 2012 one with a Cobb Accessport on it and a full turbo back HKS exhaust. its straight up nasty but really annoying to drive because its sooo damn loud. he said its annoying though the people that stare at him and take pictures everywhere of it but overall the GT-R is still a awesome car for the price and the performance it has to offer.
