With less power and not to bulky the Nissan GT-R blows by it on a track and even in a quarter mile. Even a twin turbo charged Nissan 370Z can probably out run it on a track. But at the end of the day dropping 100k on a GTR for a super sports car is a bit to much for a bunch of people. Don't get me wrong the Camaro is a great pure Muscle Car with power.

For 55k it more than proves itself on the track. Sure for 50 more thousand the gtr will win....

It may blow by with less power but, that power is aided by an advanced AWD system and a $35,000 dual clutch transmission. The $44,000 premium for a GTR ALLOWS for this technology.
If the GTR was a manual and RWD, there would be no advantage.. in other words there's a reason for the premium. It's a bias statement based on the fact these cars are not price or technologically competitive.
The GTR is an Amazing machine, but the camaro is built on a totally different driving philosophy. Tech as opposed to muscle.

Congrats on the new ride, it looks awesome. I'm sure it pulls like crazy. I sold my 370Z and bought a new C7.
