Supercar is a term used for any car with way above normal performance numbers-wise and not necessarily based soley on looks from what Ive observed. The GTR certainly fits that bill of the accepted automotive criteria. Now each of us may have our own view of it and thats fine. But by every accepted standard of the past and the present the GTR is indeed a supercar but not an exotic. Exclusive? Yes in the same vein as the Supra because they arent many comparatively because of mfg choice or as in the case of the Supra it didnt sell well here.
Exotic supercars are like Porsche 911 GT2, F430, Gallardo, Ford GT, Lotus Exige and to a bit lesser degree the Viper to name a few. Many consider the Viper an entry level exotic but not the ZR1. ZR1 is considered a Supercar like the GTR and Z06. Lots of room for debate on both of those subjects. Then you got Hyper Exotics like the CGT, Murcielago 670 SV, CCR, Zonda, SLR, Mclaren F1, Veyron etc. Ive seen this kind of breakdown over the years 80's-00's in the mags era specific of course. Whos right? Nobody really as it seems nowadays everyone forms there own opinion instead of going by what the auto press says.
