Well, how about the ZR1 then? It has beaten the GT-R in every performance category-- lap time, anything you want to talk about except for 0-60 times and magazine 1/4 mile times (stock OEM on OEM rubber they have run 10.70's@well over 130mph when driven by competent drivers familiar with the car).

Maintenance is the same as the Z06. Price is a touch higher than the GT-R by 5-10K depending on trim-level/discounts/promos.

My point stands, the GT-R is more expensive to maintain than a Viper, Z06, ZR1--It's domestic counterparts, in other words.

It is LESS expensive than it's Italian and some Euro counterparts.

It is not outlandishly expensive to maintain a GT-R, just MORE expensive.
