Fail me or whatever, but why does the GTR show up in all comparisons? To me, the Turbo S, LFA, SLS AMG are in a totally different price league than the GTR...

Every week, we see GTR vs. Civics, vs. M3, vs. Porsches, vs. Corvettes, vs. Lambos, vs. anything with wheels.

Why no ZR-1? Or a Viper? Seems like obvious choices to include.

I would guess its the power - price ratio.

I'd like to see GTR vs Bus in a test where they try to find out which vehicle can carry more people.

notice in the first 2 rounds how the losing car is driven by that monkey talking to us during the video?

same driver, single car at a time would have different results for sure.

They tried to make the GTR look bad

gtr is junk period
old one, new one .. they are ALL garbage Nissan super car wannabe. i mean interior looks so crappy, exterior look almost like the old GTR except that obviously they put 21 century twist on it...

how can anyone compare Nissan to Lambo or ..sigh..oh man.
exotic cars should never include GTRs..

everytime i see one on the street i puke in my mouth.

German cars no no no let me rephrase that.. EUROPEAN CARS are the nicest,classiest and most reliable.

Wow, the failure to the english language in this thread is appalling... You should all be ashamed of yourselves... I'm drunk and the grammar/punctuation mistakes are what stood out to me, holy fuck... Go buy a 2jz.

yo faggot ever seen a ferrari or lambo go on fire? ya well i seen it many times on the news.

in case you were so blindfolded behind your pc, you better get your eyes checked because last time i checked ENZO's interior looks like shit, no carpet no radio. So shut the fuck up about no interior NOOB

Which I don't think is right. As far as I know, all new GTRs still come with LC2 (i.e. the second generation of launch control that revs to around 3000 RPM). I think if they had used that, the race with the Turbo S would have been at least respectable, although the Turbo S would undoubtedly have won again.
