" http://www.edmunds.com/insidel... 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 what you'll describe to your friends — once everyone's tired of talking about the styling, that is. What you won't tell them is that you suspect your supercar might be a sociopath. It doesn't flow around corners like your E46 BMW M3 did, nor does it transmit feedback through the steering wheel for the sheer pleasure of it. Instead, the 2009 Nissan GT-R bends asphalt to its will. When it talks to you about tire grip, you get the feeling it's only bothering because you're part of its great plan to break free of the Earth's orbit. Should it ever achieve this, you imagine that its conversation will cease and it will simply expel you into the airless void. Until then, though, you have the conn. "

I hope you guys all understand that this car is faster than the McLaren, all the Porsches and even the supposedly "fastest car" the Bugatti Veyron. so those of you idiots who claim that the porsche is better and a better buy, you're retarded. This car is 77 grand, lets say 85 fully loaded with all crazy features.

Maybe you should support your industry, which is a good one. As for me, my country doesn't have industry so i can buy whatever i like. But if you insist 1= Japan 2= USA 3= Germany 4= the rest. And for your time thanks.

The Nissan GT-R has 473 hp, is very close to the 480 hp´s from the 911 Turbo, i think that is more fun drive the Porsche because the car transmits you more, the Nissan is so much computer...
