Can your car fly MC?

It sounds great!

in that case, one would need to see MC's pilot license before stepping in that ride. Nissan is seriously doing an overkill job with the GTRs. Porsche and the likes have already thrown the towel yet, the GTR keeps pushing the limits - the absolute car in my book.

We'll see what happens when the 991 Turbo S comes out

agreed, nissan (mizuno in particular) have kept to the R35's philosophy of continualy improvements thruout the car's lifecycle, I think they have exceeded everyone's expectations of how the R35 would evolve. At this rate the final year (2016) or the GTR will see it with around 100hp more than it's innagural year, 2009 of "only" 480hp.

competition improves the breed. I say, bring on that Nazi sled w/it's engine in the wrong place!

Mizuno said the 2013 GT-R is at about 80% of where he wants it to be.

The way the GT3 got left way behind in the recent drag race with the GTR, I think we know how that's going to end up for the overpriced Porsche. GTR POWA

Yes but let me direct you to this video, where unfortunately, the Porsche does beat the GT-R. Now this is the old gen 911, the new one should definitely be better than this.
