Near as I can tell, The U.S. spec, U.S. delivered GT-R seems to be about as quick as the early tests made it seem.
The worst-case example is the sick one that Car & Driver tested (plus one with the sniffles, apparently), but follow-ups have led to a couple of articles about production U.S. spec GT-Rs being underrated, horsepower-wise.
The norm seems to be quarter miles in the 11.6 - 11.8 area, with trap speeds near or at 120 mph.
