LOL, did you copy and paste this from GT-R Jealousy Anonymous 101?

GT-R does not give 2 shits about what you think. It will simply trample over your puny little head like the whiny little bug you are. ;)

Ready? Set? Nerd Raaaaaaaaaaaaaage again for us!

GT-R is the probably the closest thing the automotive world has to a car with a SOUL. Maybe the Veyron. Regardless, Souls are not present in brainless base organisms but only with those of more advanced intelligence and complexity.

Perhaps you should try looking for your own soul sometimes if all your intelligence is capable of is mere weak derivative white bread jealous nerd rages.

Also, I have to LOL @ SLK 55 - Girlly car and Gran Turismo - a cushy grand tourer - these have great SOUL POWER YO!!!!

Thank you for proving my point. Fanboys will be fanboys, trolls will be trolls and the GTR seems to attract them like bears to honey, hence overhyped and overrated. Just because a car is good does not mean it cannot be overrated, especially when there are so many that pray to the GTR as the holy grail and be all end all.

Caterham CSR with the weather package.
OR Caterham R500 with weather package.

If I'mma spend 80k on a car, I want to be faster than anything else on the road. God Bless Caterhams.

Are you kidding me? The R35 GT-R is in like its 2nd year of production, it's not going to remain unchanged year after year.

Similar to the LF-A, the Evora (which already got a Supercharged version before the regular ones have started rolling out)....

911 997 GT3's are starting to go for around that. I would take that. I love the GTR and all, but I love the 911 more :)

Styling jab lol... there are few cars that can match a GT-R's looks, and most cost far above it.

If you think GT-R looks bad, you must think the Corvette looks like a steaming pile of shit! They are about 100 years apart in modern design.

Stop Asianing all over this thread. Get a GT-R and then maybe your posts will have some weight behind them.

Stop red necking all over this thread Corvette dude!! This thread is about the GT-R.D::rolleyes: You know the Corvette body looks like it came from the 90s and hasn't been updated for 15 years and we all know it and only the "non" fanboys ever say anything about it.

There are plenty of great cars out there that still share some or even a lot of styling from past generations. Your post is pointless.

Of all the things about a car you can comment on without owning one, looks is probably the one with the MOST weight behind it. Stop acting like you're so damn superior, my god. The corvette might look good to you, it might look ugly to him, SO WHAT?

Uh, styling was brought up by someone else. What, you don't want to talk about styling in this thread?

Corvette isn't so much ugly as it looks antiquated.

I don't find the Honda NSX to be ugly but you can tell it's an old car. Though even then its design looks newer than the current Corvette.

(1)- Looks are subjective.

(2)- GT-R is pretty badass. It might not be for everyone, but only morons would deny it's pretty much an asskicker.

(3)- Vette is pretty badass. It might not be for everyone, but only morons would deny it's pretty much an asskicker.

(4)- Plz stop trolling up the garage.

(5)- Thanks.

It LOOKS like it's from the 90s. And it really is considering the current C6 looks nearly identical to C5, the only substantial difference being the substantially uglier open headlights.

This C5 is better looking than your car, even though it basically looks the same.

In that case you could say the same thing about the C4 to C5. You could say the same thing about the Porsche 911, which goes back to the 60s.

Yes, and I would. Plus, Porsches make some of the ugliest vehicles at their price range. Hell, they've made one good looking vehicle in their whole lineup - the Carrera GT - which was discontinued in a blink of an eye...

I was at a friends over the weekend we were talking cars as usual, and I brought up the fact that I think you can't find a better car from the factory then a Nissan GT-R for the money.

Dollar for dollar can you buy a more powerful and beast of a car? I don't think you can stretch your dollar any farther than that.

I believe right now it is on the Top Gear leader board at #17.

Don't even say Ariel Atom because I can't drive that year round in Chicago!

Let's hear what you think! :)
