nope, more like Z06 competition! I went to the North American premier of the new Nissan GT-R at the LA Auto show. 480hp/430tq 0-60 3.5 seconds.

EDIT: Is the 09' GT-R but available mid 08'

It's ugly as sin, but it spanked the competition (sans a few true "supercars") around the 'Ring. There's an article in this month's Motor Trend. Did the time in 7:35

Only cars faster than it around that track were:
1. Porsche Carrera GT: 7:28
2. Porsche 997 GT2: 7:32
3. Pagani Zonda: 7:33
4. Koenigsegg CCR: 7:34

Cars it beat:
Merc SLR McLaren: 7:40
Porsche 997 turbo: 7:40
Corvette Z-06: 7:42
Porsche 996 GT2: 7:42

I'd rather have a slower Porsche

Looks to me like that also has some serious tire on it. I will never understand why the Z06 has such poor tires on it, they really hold it back.

GT500 is in a league buy itself, The outdated lets keep old suspension and add horsepower for more weight so we can't keep up leauge

The new GTR is a monster, makes me think about buying a turbo and calling it a day if I ever ran one at a light.

Very easily the best car out of Japan in quite some time, with the Evo X and the new STI coming out imports are really strong right now (as well as domestics) I"m just happy to see great cars coming out from every continent

I hope you can run 11.7's on street tires with a turbo then

The evo, i agree:

The STI, i cant believe what they did to it:

I'd love to encounter one of these on the street/highway. It's a good thing there aren't many twisties here.

nice car, but I think I'd rather have a R34 skyline GTS-V spec

SaleenGT2001 · Nov 25, 2007

My engine can support 700 to the wheels, just need a fuel pump and a better clutch I know someone that could set me up for a turbo build and get cheap parts, besides, 1.3 sec away from that isn't going to bother me right now, I am satisfied with what I got now, it's the suspension I keep working on

thats retarded (sorry lots of offense)....
the gt-r is the most advanced up-to-date sports car in the world right now, the best in its class, and why get a gt-s over a gt-r....
maybe u just dont like change?
think man, thats a poor decision
