GTR, can't hang with the big boys!

F' the ZR1 simply because it's made by General Motors. I'll take the Viper ACR, though.
Why? You can kill a little more and have a 997,

The Viper is said to be barely drivable on the streets lol, however, I would still take it over the GTR. At least the Viper would feel like a real car, and not some video game. I'd take the ZR1 over anything though.
F the Viper simply because it's made by Bankrupt asshats.
*drool*
I will say that the blower window is incredibly tacky and should have never been done.

The Viper's never been terribly comfortable... but if I'm buying a car based on it's 'Ring time, who cares about comfort?
Oh yeah, a GT-R was out at Gateway last weekend, but it was either driven by someone who a) didn't want to wreck their GT-R or b) didn't know how to push their GT-R.

It's all very amusing but I don't see why people are so vested in who says what or lies about that unless they're in the market for such a car.
I mean, even at the price range of a tC you still get people buying on preference rather than statistics and specs. It's the same ish when you're looking at 50k cars and 100k cars and 200k cars etc.
Anyway
why is the GT-R a disgrace?

No matter what you say about the GT3 RS or any other Porsche, there is no denying the fact that NO Porsches that are in production now or will be in 2 months will perform as well as the GT-R AND for that price. The Carrera GT might be able to run around the Ring in a faster time but it's also $400,000. IF the Nissan time was right (7:29), then the $400,000 GT is only one second faster. Take your pick: $80,000 for a 7:29 around the Ring or $400,000 for a 7:28.
ok first of all bugatti veyron is a PRODUCTION CAR.. and your SS aero tt ____ isn't?
second vw has claimed the veyron can reach close to 270mph on top of all that the veyron has a FULL luxurious interior and the Aero TT does not sssoooooooooo if cheaper part and light part are applied the car would obvisiouly would weight less duh

Holy 3 day old thread that got bumped for no reason Batman!
Veyron = Uber fugly, overpriced hunk of crap.
Aero TT = Sexy, cheap hunk of crap.
And hate to break it to ya, the SSC Aero TT IS a production vehicle. If it wasn't a production vehicle, it wouldn't hold the Guinness world record for fastest production car.
Also, just becuase VW 'claims' it can do 270, doesn't mean it can. If you're that gullible, then my tC will do 271 mph and I don't need proof because you'll believe everything you hear.

Or do you just listen and believe every word that comes out of Jeremy Clarkson's mouth?

I agree with the fact that the Ultimate Aero TT looks like shyte. But the fact of the matter is, it's a production car that they can make per request for costumers and holds the fastest time in a PRODUCTION car. Looks like sh*t but can really go in a straight line. I wouldn't say it's a cheap hunk of crap though. It sure looks like it but the engineering is phenomenal.
The GT-R, yes, all made for bragging rights. If I were to get another car in the $80,000 range though, I'd have trouble finding one. But like Carbon said, $20,000 more and I'd get two cars that would rape the GT-R. I feel that there was too much hype around the GT-R. It's a great car, but there's too much hype around it and not enough around the ZR-1 (I'll take the Viper ACR out of the question because it's not exactly a daily driver if you REALLY wanted to drive it around town.)
All in all though, if I were to spend over $100,000 on a nice car, I'd save up another $50,000 and get a V8 Vantage. It's a lot more flashy, better looking, and I don't need to be getting to 60 in under 4 seconds. Basically what I'm trying to say is:
1) It's all preference, but facts are facts: the Veyron is an overpriced car that IS great, but a car half the price beat what it was SUPPOSED to be good at, hitting the fastest top speed for a production car.
2) The GT-R > GT3 RS for value. I don't care if you say it goes faster because at this point, no one really knows. But for $25,000 cheaper, Nissan really has the value class under their belt. I'd much rather get a car that's $25,000 cheaper and is able to keep up with a GT3 RS.

That's why I like the Corvette series (at least the recent ones.) They're good deals for the performance but most of all, they're still running on some old ___ technologies (push rods and leaf springs???) and still kicking ___.

Thanks for proof that the GTR is slow in a straight line. A Z06 can run 10's in the 1/4 mile.
http://www.corvetteblog.com/archives...d-14-mile.html
Let's not forget that the Z06 costs less than a GTR in the real world and is capable of 30+ mpg.
And how is a photobucket video any different from a youtube video?
