nice race.....but not a good comparison.
Im just laughing at the fact that they are comparing the GTR in a class that's WAY above than whats its meant to be competing with.
for them to compare the GTR in that class is a big insult to Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo and even Audi.
A car thats meat to be competing with a fast sports car such as a 911 (i dont really class the 911 as a super car and certainly not the GTR either).
first it was a comparison to the LP460, then the R8 etc etc. for gods sake the 599 has a V12!
Point here is that most manufacturer can make a car that will go fast in a straight line, corners well etc. But at the end of the day it comes at a cost and what customers they want to be targeting.
we dont have 6 figures income, nor have $25000 to insure our cars every year (my mates was tell me about this guy he knows who pays 25k on insurance for his Ferrari)
point is the GTR is something really special, its got the performance that can rival most super cars but none of the price tag. you can actually afford this thing if you really want it. So its not exclusive to the super rich.
Good on Corvette for a great car. I just hope Nissan doesn't go soft with the V-spec like they've done with the r32-34. just strip the weight, strengthen the drive trains and add more Ponnies.
dont forget Honda is working hard on their new NSX and i think Toyota is meant to be working on a Supra project too. These are rivals to the GTR so its would be interesting couple of years ahead.
