And it DOES have its share of turbo lag, just b/c it is better than previous cars dose not mean its not there. The article you quoted is written from the point of veiw that it would be worse than what it turned out to be, I went into the show room expecting better than I saw. All I know is that this car was not for me and I have had Nissans before. And maybe my ideal car is not neccessarly performamce based only b/c there is no denying that the GT-R is the most powerful car, but I do like something that has a little bit more luxury. Just my .02.

Fair enough.

Thanks for responding.

Not a problem, I enjoy a good disscusion.

Oh and I do agree with you on your audi statment.

I am just killing time until the LF-A comes out, now I can see that car being something special, whether it will be faster the GTR I don't know that answer.

The May issue of Road & Track has a good comparison of the GT-R, Corvette Z06 and a Porsche 911 Turbo. They say the GT-R "Spanks" them... I want one!!
