Maybe you can't see my signature? I've had mine for over 2 years. I know plenty. Dog slow stock then that means LS1s are crap slow. Get a clue.

I've seen magazines tests as low as 11.5 for the GT-R... don't tell me to "do some research" . And yes, it was designed for track racing. Just like the Z06. Up until this year, Formula 1 cars had "every driver aid imaginable" as well. It gets the job done, and does it quite well.

The launch control is insane. I'm not sure which I would pick, as I don't have $70-$80k to blow on a "toy."

Looks to be in the $70-$75k range.

Which "circuit races" is it built for exactly??

The all Japan GT Championship GT500 class maybe/only.
That is probably the only place on this earth it can currently (MAYBE) conform to the rules and compete. Even then, it would probably have to lose most of it's 'nannies'.

It was still designed and built with going around road courses as fast as possible, without sacrificing everyday driveability. I know you don't like/respect/appreciate/acknowledge it because it's not domestic, but it's still an amazing car.

Riight!

A few years ago when they first came out I raced a coupe with my nearly bone stock(Flowmaster, K&N, tuneup) 95 T/A 6spd vert...I put at least 2 cars on it from a roll up to about 100. My 98 is quite a bit faster than my 95 up top. They are low 14 high 13 second cars at best...Moter Trend got a 14.0 for the 287hp version.

Was that even a question. Seems to me like a valid statement.

Let's just say that it was designed and built with MUCH MORE than just going straight as fast as possible in mind.

I NEVER said it was not an "amazing car". In fact, I've given it kudos before and most definitely have acknowleded it's performance and maybe even appreciated it's technology/engineering. Hell, I did not even bash it's looks like (almost) everyone else on here!!

But respect is another thing entirely.

And yes, I could/would NEVER own one as I do not believe in handing Japan that much cash for anything, let alone that there are other American/domestic products out there that can match and/or beat it's performance.
Sorry, there are just WAY too many U.S. citizens un/underemployed, with no health benefits, or even no food on the table, to be supporting Japan's economy (when/where there IS a choice) in these times.
And YES, even ONE purchase of this magnitude DOES make a difference!!!!!
Too bad if you (or any of the other import fanboyz on here, or even your Econ 101 profs for that matter) don't agree with me on the above.

I agree with you. I have never liked buying any foreign car just for that reason. But you have to admit the competition makes the domestics better. I just wish competition between the big three would have produced Japanese quality vehicles on their own much sooner.

And those that still bitch and say Japan builds better quality stuff need to look a little more closely at those vehicles. I just test drove a new Malibu. And having driven both vehicles you would have to smoking crack IMO if you want the cookie cutter bmw copying snooze fest we know as the accord over that. The malibu's interior was a hell of alot nicer IMO too. Honda has way way too much going on.

Oh and I drove the 2.4l too. Only complaint is 4spd auto instead of the honda's 5. but that is one nice car for what it is. They wanted 21k for the one I was driving. Way less than the similarly equipped honda. For some reason those things are hard to get. Chevy is giving their crap away.

My opinion is that if US automakers want me to spend my hard-earned money on buying a new car from them, they need to make something that I WANT to buy. If I wanted a fullsized SUV, I'd most likely get a new Suburban or Tahoe, because I believe they are the best in their class. But we'll see about that when the next Titan comes out. If I wanted a half-ton truck I would get a Titan (personal preference), but anything heavier duty than that would be one of the new Ford Super Duty trucks. IMO The Quest and Odyssey are the best minivans out there. Compact trucks, Nissan/Toyota. I refuse to blindly support something because of where it comes from, even if it's my own country. Doing so does a dis-service to the industry IMO, because it does not force them to make the best product they can.
