Am I the only one who thinks it's ironic that the Z06's times to 110/120/130mph is conveniently missing? Over 100mph seems to be about the point the ZO6 starts handing the GTR it's ***.

COD02SS

Could you make anymore excuses? I mean jesus guys. ITS FASTER FROM A STOP. That's all that matters. Caring how it does from a roll just makes you sound like a ricer.

BTW - Just wait till we see what it will do with a tune and some more boost.

Um wow an AWD car beat a RWD torque monster out of the hole OMG

look at the numbers, even with the shitty launch the Z06 manages to stick all that power throught 2 wheels and hold onto the GTR which has the advantage of 4 wheels

The C6Z is still king

Period

COD02SS

I'm never going to win this argument so just make excuses for the Z and blast the GTR

I wave the....

Fixed it for ya.

Everyone on here is talking bone f'ing stock. C6 Z06es have gone certified high 10s already like that (STOCK).
Stating the "tune & boost" arguement makes YOU sound like a ricer (which I guess you were before owning your present car).

COD02SS

Tell yourself whatever it takes to make yourself feel better. Z06 got owned by a twin turbo V6. Boy that 7L is king of the hill eh?

Technology > Cubic inches

^^^^

You really want to challenge Pissy Chrissy & RedBeauty84ZX for the outright #1 import fanboy/defender title on here, right??
You just moved up into the #1 spot for import fanboyzz that currently own a domestic.
It was a hard fought battle between yourself and Stopsign 32V, I Run Elevens, etc. but you prevailed!!

ALL hail COD!!!

And you don't sound ANYTHING like a ricer

Just wanted to point out that you are incorrect...despite the fact that the Z06 has a disadvantage in that only two tires are powered, even from a stop, it is still faster than the GTR. It is 0.2 faster to 100mph and certainly only widens the gap from that point on.

So to put it in a clearer perspective...not even a twin tubo AWD technology show can outrun the "archaic" Z06.

I can sympathize with import fans on this one. Their hero has fallen short of our hero...and our hero is even a lame duck at this point. Nissan couldn't catch last year's fastest vette. Wait until this year's fastest vette hits the streets. It's over people. Learn that and move on.

Just wanted to throw this in too...you're wrong again...

"Technology" in this case falls on it's relative face just before 100mph whereas "Cubic inches" keeps on crankin hard as it shows it's tail to "technology".

So to fix your comparison...

Cubic inches > pretty much anything else

Thats a decent RICEMOBILE, I still wouldn't buy one. Its in a totally different category of car, than any F-Body or Vett. So whats your point of posting this garbage here? I have to say this, Im a car guy not a badge *****, i like cars period, but this is not the site to post this car!

hmmm, and we will have to get some real comparos of the GTR vs the Z on an actual track as well. Being confident the Z06 will walk it through the quarter i think this should be the GTR's chance to make it up. Magazine numbers are crap anyway. i got my money on the Z06....and the GTR is far from a "masterpiece". Howerver, for how hideous it is, its still quick

I started in this thread defending the GTR, so this is not a biased comment:

So far, the C6 Z06 beats the GTR in the quarter mile, E.T. & trap speed...

To dispute this shows you're a truly fanatic fanboy considering even Nissan fanboys accept this...

Actually, its not... period.
From a stop the AWD is going to take the Vette and it might not be able to reel it in.

Just to point out the GT-R is faster from a dig.



Face the music gentlemen.

Blakbird24

But it did...that's the point...the Z06, from a dig, makes it to 100mph 0.2sec faster than the GT-R, despite undoubtedly having to make up ground after the launch. That shows just how effective cubic inches really are. I'd be really interested to see a Z06 with AWD or a GTR with RWD. The Z06 would take the GTR pretty convincingly in either case i'm sure.

The Z06 is the faster car...whether you look at from a dig, from a roll, AWD or RWD...it's faster. It beat AWD with RWD, so there should be no doubt in anyone's mind that it is the faster car...period.

Have you ever driven a 12 second car or better?

Hydramatic

Ok guys....

Even though I think the above videos with a stocker Z06 running 11.2's should be more than enough to end this thread....

There are advantages to both drivetrains and engines....

Also, despite what people might try to tell you, the LS7 is an advanced engine. It isn't "ultimate gadget status" like the GTR because it is actually meant to go on the track....not just some automatic-having toy for rich kids
