Kidding, right? How many categories did the 'Vette loose to the GTR?
Then there's winter time... oops. If I had the means I'd make the GTR my winter "beater", lol

GTR over the ZR1? I just threw up a little, but only a little.

Sorry guys lol.

Let me 1st start off my saying that anyone that would take a car like out in the snow is nuts even if it does have an AWD system. Both cars crosses the line between fast and just plan crazy fast lol so its a draw for me in that category. Both cars handle and brake well enough for me so that is another draw in that category. So to me, if money wasn't a problem, I would go with the GTR because I think that it looks better than the ZR1. I've seen the ZR1 in person and it just looks like a normal Corvette with some minor work done to it.

Please don't ban me lol.

Attica Marcus, without an opinion life would be a bore!
:action-smiley-051:
But I dissagree...to me, the GTR looks alot like a typically overdone tuner car while the 'Vette is a sinister, already recognizable classic.

the GTR looks like an inbred 350Z/G35 and a horses asshole

so yeah i'd say i'd take a "normalish" looking corvette over that....

plus its faster, cooler, and not a piece of crap that will break if you drive it the way its "designed" to be driven....

and no i couldnt say that last part without laughing....

dont get me wrong...i love both cars...but how does the ZR1 "destroy the GTR's life?"

0-60--the same time

1/4 mile-11.5 vs. 11.8

lap time-1:24 vs 1:25

plus the ZR1 is more than $30K more plus its the highest performance Vette you can buy vs. the base model GTR(although the only one to date)

I just dont get the comments-----I would take ether one in a heartbeat. i guess its the american muscle vs Japan thing----

cause the ZR1 could be driven home after that and not towed away :pounding table:

Saw GTR and ZR1 in person. The looks of the Blue Devil are so sexy. That metallic grey is beautiful.

Nothing against the ZR1 don't get me wrong I love them, but there is a reason the video was posted and the test only carried out against a GTR (and not the V-Spec). To show that the ZR1 could beat an entry level Nissan GTR.

It should be a totally different story if they ran the test with a ZR1 vs GTR V Spec. This would be a more comparable as the 2 flagships are being used.

Either way though I would take any one of them if given the chance. Both tough cars.

if the transmission in the "normal" GTR cant take it....how the hell is the "V Spec" gonna handle it....

and if they decided to put a for real transmission in it....and fix the issues with that....how much more is it gonna cost?

and yeah....still nissan :)

The best part was at the end where the ZR1 smoked a burnout circle around the GTR. :D

I'm just glad another American car stepped up!! It's been a good couple of years for the US. The new Caddys are Kicken ass. A station wagon with 425 hp. And now a world class two seater!
Nice.

i'll take either one of them...

i always thought a white gtr would look great with a carbon fiber hood.

That was pretty awesome.
Both cars are really bad ass, it's just a matter of preference. I'd take the ZR1 because I will always choose a V8 over a boosted V6 or 4cylinder. Hence driving an SRT8 Charger over a New Evo or STI, (which I'm not dissing) the EVO is kick as, just again not completely my taste.

I'll be honest. I like both the GTR and the ZR1. But, the ZR1 wins hands down. Just a completely different category of "Monster".

I think the Z06 is a better car to compare it to. Similar HP. The Z06 will have serious weight advantage & the GT-R has all wheel drive & paddle shifts. That should level the field. I've already had my way with a GT-R, it wasnt even close.
