Holy Crap! 2011 Nissan GTR 0-100 time!

[Jasonpb]

One of my favourite cars growing up, rather cheap in Japan even if you were to pay in AUD, it only becomes expensive when the price increases 130-150% by being put on a ship to Australia.

Only car missing now is a new Supra! owned a very modified RZ for 7 years and I can tell you 636rwhp is a bunch of fun it's just a shame that Toyota will never release a car in that bracket again it will come under the lexus brand if it ever does anything.

Naah,... to slow for me. I like this ride better.

The FT-86 that they are apparently building with subaru could be interesting but it won't have the same displacement or number of turbo's.
Most likely a single turbo 2.0L

Quarter mile times are a useless measure as it doesn't take into account the level of engineering that goes into a car.

It's just as difficult to go fast in a straight line as it is through corners. If you don't think so, you don't understand.

Definitely impressive times with this new GTR. If we were in the US it'd only cost us $85k.

The thing you're missing there is that more than likely if you were in the US you'd be getting paid much less, so it's not that much cheaper.


3.0 0-60 is impressive no matter what it costs really. I think they look like balls and i'd never want to own one, though.

R35 GTR is an Awesome car. Drove one and was impressed but not that keen on the looks but that's just a personal opinion.
As much as I enjoy driving my R36 Passat during the week I can't wait for the weekends to take my R33GTR out for a spin.
It's close to how Nissan intended it to be but is a beautiful car to drive especially considering it's 13 years old.

Have to say for the size and weight of the thing it's bloody impressive.

One of my surgeon customers has one, and I have to admit it looks odd amongst the Porsches, Ferraris and Mazzers in the Private hospital carpark.

doesnt it also come with a very impressive zero to first service of only $20,000 LOL

Back when I cared more about supercars (when I was 12) I was in love with the McLaren F1, which as most of us know had a 0-100 of about 3.2s (the LM model?)

Nowdays, I'm more impressed at the moment with cars like the Golf Bluemotion, but as an engineer, it sure is impressive to me that Nissan can provide a car to sell to the general public* that does all the things a car should be able to do, and still be so fast. I guess I'm in the camp with those that would argue it might be more livable than a supercar, but geeze, 99% of us are just dreaming anyway right? I think any argument about how you could pay for it or live with it is invalid unless you actually could go buy one... so yeah

I'd still like to think the McLaren would beat the GTR to 350 though

for 170,000 i'll have a e92 m3 any day!! Not as quick, but its a better car in every other way (which maters more to me since i dont live at a racetrack)

and i do find that both impressive and hilarious... especially imagining that guy that doesnt read the fine print rocking up to collect his car after the service
