Yea....yea....I know the "sticker" on the GT-R is 70k but purchase prices are right around the six figure mark.

A Z06 would hand the GT-R it's lunch & they can be had for under 70K "loaded"

from zero to 115mph the gtr is faster...after that the z06 pulls...motor trend has already done the testing in last months issue.....and besides these cars are so close in acceleration times neither one would eat the other ones lunch!

the z06 does run faster 1/4 mile times, but thats all it does faster according to all the mags. Thank you nissan for making a race car that the driver has nothing to do with

yeah, i have had customers come in wanting to place an order for a GT-R expecting to pay only 70k. when i told them the selling price (110k) well lets just say they aren't 2 happy with that figure

If so they will sell every one they get in record time.....

Every local dealer from what I have heard have a minimum 25k "market adjustment"

The GTR is actually cheaper than a Z06 and it has 4 seats, so it really cant be compared to a plastic 2 seater with a 7 litre truck engine powering it.


GTR > any chebby, unless youre a redneck.

Check your math bro.........68-70k for a Z06 & anymore even less than that.
GT-R....... 70-73k with a market adjustment of 25k or larger.
