My observations/perceptions tell me this car when pushed to its limit, is as exciting or even more exciting than an N/A RWD. But that is just an observation that i won't push as anything more.

3800lbs is kind of heavy, but this things are still pretty well balanced and boost really pushes this car hard. The AWD system on the Gt-R allows it some RWD capability. I would like to see some weight reduction on this car. 3500-3600lbs but, People that drive it never say it feels heavy. I'm sure weight reduction would just make it that much sicker.
I agree with everything you said. It's also completely meaningless to me, who doesn't race at the track or do HPDE's, or push anything to 100% of its limit. I'm not Randy Pobst, and I don't need a 360* panoramic tour of the block.
