For a few seconds, you give in to the spectacle of driving a 2009 Nissan GT-R. This car attracts its own entourage and then takes you along for the ride. It's not just the Skyline mystique, either. It's the fact that even in production sheet metal, the R35 GT-R looks like a one-off concept stolen
from a Southern California design studio. It has as many hard contours as a Porsche 911 has soft curves. You have the key fob, and still you ogle it. Soon, though, you point the GT-R down an on-ramp and plant the throttle. The effortless brutality with which the 2009 Nissan GT-R gathers speed is wh

´t ecause it coust more
yea well its still a 1.7 tonn sports car with rear seats an averaged sized engine which is underpowered for the wieght it has to pull. nd u still call it a poor excuse for a supercar that didnt even try to be one in the first place. when ppl say it can beat nethin it comes up against they mean if
two average joes raced one had a GTR one had a GT. the GTR will win cause i doubt a avg. joe could push a carrera GT as hard as a GTR
GTRs to me are better because.....you dont have to be a millionaire to have one. u can actually buy it and it performs with the best of them. supercars are just for bragging, not for real racers.
Good god will someone smash tha fark outa the dickhead narrator and the way he says "knee-san"
