Sorry man....a GT-R is not in the same league from an exotic standpoint as a Lambo or Ferrari. Performance? yes......exotic intangibles? not even close.

Those that do own both most certainly do..and they are few and far between. Those that don't, don't give a shit. Otherwise, they'd own one.

I love it. You can't even define supercar. It all comes down to "exotic intangibles". And what are exotic intangibles? Low production high priced badge whore exclusivity snob appeal?

There is no logic by basing this argument soley on performance numbers, that would lead us to saying that a Corvette ZR1 or a Viper ACR is a super car, or any car with similar numbers would be a 'super car', I don't recall the EVO FQ400 being considered a super car, now was it??* Quote:
This is an interesting point, I think what speaks volumes is how insecure some of the GT-R owners are, and even their fans. Spending hours on the M3forums, just to prove a GT-R is a great car, and if to project that M3 owners couldn't sneeze and buy a GT-R tomorrow. I'm half tempted to but a GT-R and come to M3 forum and post about how I want my M3 back, oh wait, there already a handful of these type of members. What is even more annoying is -=Hot|Ice=-, this guy is a real character, calling the M3 "pathetic", how can this be Hot|Ice, for the last 2 years, your avatar stated you would be getting a 2011, then 2012 M3, "Soon to come" yet, you seem to jump on the train and say that the M3 is a 'wannabe' and 'pathetic' Either the M3 is a great car or it isn't, which is it?

Yes it does and I do not condone those that trash the GT-R. I also do not condone those on NAGTROC that think they are driving the best car on the planet and one that should be compared to a 458, Aventador, etc. I think you will find every post I have made about the GT-R to be positive in giving the car the credit it deserves from a perfromance standpoint. It just is not a Supercar and that is what I've said all along. A supercar has to have performance AND exoticness. The GT-R has one of those. When I said....at the end of the day, an M3 is still just a BMW and a GT-R is still just a Nissan is not degrading either car. I'm merely saying that BMW and Nissan do not make exotic cars.

Again, semantics. Thats your opinion. Its not shared by everyone. Most car reviewers think the GTR is a supercar(as do I). Quote:
by GTR owners. And the reason I spend time on an M3 forum is that I've owned one(and a few other M cars) and like the vehicle. Plus given the number of M3s out there it usually is a little more active than other performance car sites.

The GTR in stock form runs with 458s, Gallardos, LFAs, etc. If those are supercars so is a GTR( and ZR1s, Viper ACRs too)

I can go list COUNTLESS ignorant posts by not only yourself, but your select few arrogant fanboys here. It is NOT JUST GTR owners like you are putting here. Your ignorance leaves me in awe. You apparently have a vendetta on GTR owners for some reason (small "wang" syndrome?) when several people are simply inquiring about the damn car. It actually "offends" you lol! Even the OP is simply asking for pros and cons on here and look at the absolute trash you type here....you picked hot ice out of all the intelligent posts about the gtr on here....just looking for a reason. Get over yourself. PS, The GTR doesnt need to "prove" its a great car, it speaks for itself. Quote:
That all started with the 911 turbo. But then whoever out there decided to test it against other higher end cars and guess what? they publicized it. Youtube, Car and driver, Top Gear...and im sure a few other magazines that youll conveniently call, "bias" has. But its clear, a car, to be an "exotic" has to cost at LEAST 150k and be European, correct? So is a gallardo an exotic? You can get em 90k used. Quote:
Quote:
wait....none huh?....damn...sucks to be you. What was interesting about Top Gear, is that they actually praised...were impressed with the GTRs performance, and they drive more cars than...sorry to say..you probably ever will. So...id definitely take their word for it as opposed to anonymous internet guy. And usually the Brits hate and tend to look down on Japanese cars. Its not often they give praise to them. And thats just one example...there are just so many more of others saying the same about the GTR being in super car territory. I guess well call it..hybrid? Semi exotic? BTW, i addressed you before..scroll up. Feel free to log on to nagtroc and post the same as you did here. Youll finally come across others whose stables arent with just a lone GTR. But somehow, i dont think you will. Cliffs: GTR people arent the only ones who believe their car is a supercar. Numerous famous others who review vehicles for a living believe so also based off of its performance. Last edited by mattixxg; 11-05-2011 at 09:43 PM.. |

NO. This is only taking one category, performance, into account. If I make my mustang hang with a 458 then it becomes an exotic. Its not running with them that's important its being them that is.

I had an M3, a GTR and a 997.2 GT3RS. I didn't fall in love with the GTR as I did with the RS but there is no denying it. It's the fastest of all three. To get supercar status and speed you'd have to get a GT2RS but as all porsche guys know, it doesn't get the love the 3RS's do so you can never win. Go with the first few responses. Life is short. Get it and move on. You'll be moving fast too You can always come back I'll always miss my E92 given it gave me a bit of everything but always made me want other cars. I now only have the 3RS and my daily is a prius. Polar opposites. Each car makes me happy I have the other.
