I’m with 90% of the thread. Very nice indeed, but I wouldn’t pay that much for that car. I’d much prefer an R34 GTR. ---

I’d still rather have the 997, more value for the money, it isn’t a sea of plastic. ---

They don’t have slicks from the factory. Hence stock. Actually going back to a couple car mags I’ve got I was wrong. The base C6 runs 12’s. Z06 is in the 11’s, on STOCK tires. :anal ---

Is this based on any kind of evidence, or do you just not like GM? Let me explain how car companies work: 1/ Performance 2/ Luxury 3/ Low price Choose any two. - Mike ---

In the street fire video it looks like the roof had come off before. when they show inside the car you can see the black duct tape on the floor and the shity tape job they did on the roof. ---

No, as much as I like it badged as a Nissan, I think it would be better suited as an Infiniti. ---

I hate that metalic orange colour…or did. This pic now lives on my desktop. The more I look at that car the more I love it. I was completely indifferent to it when I saw the Proto. Yawn! Wonder what the performance will be in real life and if it will actually be worth 100k compared to other similarly priced cars? …about the corvette…regardless of its performance it is still a corvette and with it comes the inevitable small penis, middle aged references; justified or not …and no matter how incredible the performance could be on this GT-R it will still be a Nissan.
