I mean the mclarens get 600HP out of a 3.8L V8 TT
the GT-R gets 600HP out of a 3.8L V6

a 4.0L V8 with that clever of turbo placement and design only putting down 510HP? c'mon MB we know it has big balls. now unleash them
Thats the beauty of the GT-S... POTENTIAL! The Black edition may be looking at up to 580hp, But i guessimate pricing to be about $170,000. You can get the base GT for 100k and tune the shyt out of it.

yea but in the end my comment will be, for that money I can get a 2015 GT-R for 85K (dealer auction price), dump ~40k (total of the gt-s) and have a monster. plus as beautiful as the Merc is and the amazing engine I still have the softest of spots for the GT-R in my heart.

No matter how much you dump into a GT-R... It will NEVER SOUND like or be as quality crafted, internally and externally as this Benz... And this Benz gets all the performance from RWD.
Unless Benz is sharing this engine design with Nissan for the next gen GT-R?
No comparison.

Yes, that would make the GT-R, the most desireable car on the planet if you can attain one for less than $100k?

no chance lol with the nismo being up around 150k already I could see the next gen starting around 130k.

the only part that throws off their pricing scheme is the recent slash in prices at dealerships. 14's got hacked way low to make room for 15's and even the 15's got a discount at most places.
