Actually what about a gt3 rs? It's already 99% race car. yet street legal, and it can easily outperform the nismo rc on a track.

The BMW ONLY put a 320 in BTCC, can you mod a consumer 320i to that spec and beat those factory spec 320? I am pretty sure a street mod 320 will cost much less than buying a BTCC 320.

I am pretty sure you can put same or similar or even better adds-on to a consumer car, however, there are some reasond race teams will spend much more to buy a factory race car.

A BMW 320 BTCC will cost quite a bit more then 150K... It also has more then 300hp from its little 2.0 4 cylinder. A lot more development went into that car then into this Nismo RC. Check out EVO magazine from August. They track tested a BTCC Honda Civic. It lapped their test track faster then a Ferrari 458, try that with the Nismo RC...

There is a difference between factory prepared spec race cars and factory prepped weekend warriors. I think this Nismo RC belongs to the latter category
