OMG Nissan's GTR 0-60 in 3.3

This is going to be one quick drag car!

"We know you want the numbers and we're not going to waste your time. Neither is Nissan. Its 2009 GT-R hits 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, quicker than the last Dodge Viper, Corvette Z06 and Porsche 911 Turbo we tested. Keep your foot pinned, and after another tap on the upshift paddle it will clear the quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds at more than 120 mph."

I had alot of doubts about the GTR, but I guess those doubts have been put to rest. Regardless of whether I like the design or not, this car is sure alot of bang for your buck.
Waiting to see what Japanese companies like Signal or MCR will do soon with this car soon.

So whats your opinion???---> Mine = Good Job Nissan

Mines is already working on two of the R35 GT-R's for the 08 Auto Salon.
Have yet to see an R35 on the road...but they are selling at auction for over $100,000.00.....

One guy sold 2 for $120k a piece. Helluva a way to get your GT-R free. finance 2 at $77k, sell both for $240k....make $86K off of the deal and have your GT-R paid for and have nearly $10k for mods.....

I did not know that. I was always into German cars and I am new to all the Japanese cars. I have only had my Suby since last April. I really love the AWD and never want anything but that.

The 2008 GT-R will be my old-man, rich guy car. So in 2038, look out for me mashing on one or driving really slow in the fast lane with one.

Gojira FTW!

This GT-R feels like the Supra when it first came out over a decade ago. $10-30k mark-up seems almost expected. Finally, a Ferrari in Nissan clothing.
