This month's Car magazine is just out; GT-R pwns 911 Turbo, R8 and M3, on the road and on the track. I really, really want one.

If we measured the success of the GT-R solely by the volume and intensity of inferiority complexes it has spawned for fanboys of other nameplates, it is, without doubt, the BEST CAR EVER.

@-TheStig-:

LMAO! Not because what you said was funny, but because I find your comment pitiable.

Used Supras are not cheap. Unmolested examples with the turbo will set you back at least $40k.

That car is such a peice of garbage. Watch, in 5 years it'll turn out just like the Supras back in the 90's. They'll be on used car lots for a dime a dozen and nobody will want one.

@Ray Wert: hey all I know is that the Enzo was a very polarizing Ferrari when it came out
alot of people thought it was very unFerrari
and then they heard it rev up
and they saw it go through its paces

Im just saying alot of people have criticized the GT-R mainly on looks but I bet as soon as you hear one grown by you will have a change of heart

I think the new Sti will have the same effect

but like the Enzo you cannot help but take notice

Too bad my subaru could pass this guy on the highway.... Didn't they GPS / Speed limit these things because of previous Skyline "hoonage"? In Japan "skyline" is a derogatory term, it is such an epidemic. ( I guess the closest we have is IROC.) Only at sanctioned race tracks can the owner really explore the limits of this car because the GPS confirms you are at the track. Prob a good idea..
However, if this guy paid X amount over sticker, hes prob going to have someone re-flash his ECU, although i heard that was made more difficult somehow too.
If Ferrari built in a system that restricted HP output on public roads, we would have more Enzos to drool on.
