If I am not mistaken an issue or 2 ago had the 11 GTR vs the 11 Z06 and the Z06 was a bit quicker, I really want to see an 11/12 Z06 vs a 12 GTR.
I recognize the GT-R as a car...but not to what it is billed as. As stated previously: I can buy a ZR1 and drive it as it is intended and it carries a warranty. To get the claimed performance out of the GT-R, you VOID the Warranty. Break the car using Launch Control, a feature offered by Nissan, you void your warranty. You have to use launch control to obtain the performance they claim it can do. That makes the GT-R a joke in my book. Look at how many GT-R owners are SUING Nissan for this very fact.
