The GT-R may look nice, but is sure is nothing special, especially when it comes to guys who know how to build muscle cars right.

You do realize the gtr RAPES the z06 on every single track, in addition to the dragstrip too. that is despite the weight advantage the z06 has. You do realize the gtr is faster than supercars 2-3 times its price, and that it has defeated cars like porsche 911 turbo, gt3, gt2, ferrari f430, lamborghini gallardo, murcielago, mercedes sl65 amg, bmw m3, m6, etc....

besides the fact that we can do the best numbers in a gtr due to its setup. None of us would come anywhere near the Z06 numbers, being as we're not professional drivers. the only limits you'll find with a GTR are what you have the balls to do, you'll be spinning out all day in a Z06!

Just visited my dealer. My sales guy said that the gt-r buyers come in with cash and drive out (the dealers has financed *one* gt-r sale). That's it. Basically, if you ask for a test drive, you're not serious. Now, you can make the argument that anybody paying that kind of money would want to make sure that individual car's not a dog, but point is they have the money and intent before they ever get behind the wheel.
