Better? Go to a library and look for an late 2008 issue of Wheels magazine comparing the Falcon F6, GT-R and 997 GT2. The conclusion of the article (I don't have it in front of me but I do recall it by heart): "I'd still take the GT2 over the GT-R, since the GT2 actually challenges the driver, while the GT-R feels…

Yes, therefore my last sentence on the previous post.

Nobody will get anywhere close to fully use its performance anyway.

There's a lot more to a car than its performance.

I could also pick a GT-R for $100k, send it to a tuner shop, fit the new tyres on it, and have a higher performing car for a lower price. Hell, if we're discussing performance, there's a helluva lot lower we could go as well.

LOL, I have nothing against Nissan or Japanese cars. My point is that pricing a very tuned R35 side by side with scratch-designed machinery is risky.

I'm talking more about the R35 platform itself than Nismo's back catalogue as a whole. Not to mention that there's no fucking way an R35 on steroids can be ruled on the same grounds as purpose-built supercars.

On the paper.

I meant cars that can produce things better than numbers and theoretical speculation. It's not just a name factor, it's also the fact some of the cars on sale for $200,000 (or even less) are also a lot more special and exclusive than a very high performance GT-R.

With the main exception that all we've been seeing is numbers and more numbers. And according to those who actually drove it, the 918 only excells numerically. And aesthetically, if you ask me.

Considering it's a subcompact, it's actually fairly much.

Pricing will be less that $200,000. We'll know more at the LA Show.

I personally don't think high technology is crucial in a car not costing half a million, as long as it's functional and it works well. Yes, the Mustang generally fails to work well handlingwise (I'm looking at you, pre-2011 GTs), but the '12-'13 Boss 302, and the '00 Cobra R were renowed for very good handling…

I'd slap that on every single of my folders, was that a sticker.

You sir, are a genius.

I agree so much I am bleeding my agreement.

Exactly.

Those jokes stopped being funny ten incarnations ago.

Your first two paragraphs: go check it out, I'm pretty damn sure of my claims.
In practical terms, Germany was alone. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was as good a military force in 1917 as the USSR was in 1991, the Ottoman Empire was similarly a joke heading its end and Bulgaria simply didn't have the power necessary for…

First of all I did not say that an entire generation of Germans had been lost at the war, I said that an entire generation had been lost at the war. The British, French and Russian armies suffered similar casualties. The main difference was that those nations had eachother's back. Germany was at one. When the US Army…

That's the later C6Z, which only made it to the showrooms 5 years after the FGT was discontinued.
