    Just got back from the NY car show. Biggest crowd was at the GTR stand. For a street car the GTR seems to have it. Subtle it aint which is either good or bad, exotic it is. The design very Japanese which is honest. I would say not just a great car for the price, but a great car period.

    For the track I would still take a scuderia(cant get one) or a GT3(same) but for the street i am guessing this car is not far of the mark in terms of driver enjoyment and sheer performance.

    Makes an M3 look like a regular bimmer(bland) with a faster motor, which sadly is all the new M3 is, bland boring and quicker.

    The GTR is the new off the rack King, by far.

    I dig the twin turbos, the DSG tranny, the small rear seats for the kiddies.., the AWD.

    Everything about the GTR is cool...except the looks (to me ) are off.

    Its just a personal opinion.. and for those that dig it..

    More power to ya.

    I just read R&T which said it "spanked" the 911 and Z06.

    It went around the track quicker too!

    Wow!! The GTR is real.

    You might want to reserve the look until you see it in metal. Let's just day that the GT-R is not a camera friendly design.

    Definatly a Japanese design, not trying to be anything else, but really much better in the flesh.

    +1 on the M3. Anything other then an exotic is very, VERY threatened by this car. New m3 is ///Marketing.
