The Nissan GTR has been on sale since Jun 26, 2008 in the US.

Never know, it might have 14 more launches in it before the tech team has to descend to fix it.

Oh and here's a proper top speed run.

So the near saloon Nissan GTR can go just as fast as a Corvette Z06 with less power. Was that your point.

If you think that's what I meant, you need to watch the videos again ... the Vette has a higher top speed and gets there quicker.  Heck the GTR is at the top of 5th gear at 140mph and the Vette is just shifting out of 3rd at 120mph.

So you are trying to mock a close geared track car that puts the Z06 to shame?

Awesome video, Ryan.
0-100 in about 10 seconds? That's impressive.

Loved the camera work at the end too.

The 'vette video was cool, too.

killer car, I wish it was more mainline and available like an STI, or the old 3000 GT VR4's, You would think car manufactorers would be lining up to sell AWD cars with TT's.

The GTR is fragile and it's top speed run is slower than the Vette.  Think what you want.

Why are we comparing a Nissan to a GM vehicle? They are completely different.

Yes, I think of the vette as a solid race car, and the GTR as sort of a japanese ferbie - fun until you drop it, then it just stutters.

11 out of the 26 150mph cars in the 2008 september silver state challenge were corvettes, not one nissan. Corvettes are the preferred car of races for a reason.

There also sort of a different car all together but whatever.

at 180, if you crash, you have a better chance of living getting thrown out teh windshield landing a mile away then you do with a seatbelt on. unless its a 5point with a helmet, which he had neither.

So the so called fragile car can out pace a Z06. If you actually read one of many hundreds of reports of the Nissan GTR the car is not built for top end speed. So you acknowledge that the GTR is the better track car then as your only defence is straight line speed with the Z06.
