There's much more research to be done to find out more about the GT-R.
What time did the Spec V put down?

Unless you're going to take it to the track, buying a ZR1 is a waste. Can't even push it to 50% of its capabilities on the street.....

ZR1 is the car for me. Spec V will probably be about the same price if it comes here.

True, I agree.

It took me a while to come full circle with that conclusion, but heck it's true.

I would be fine with just the Z06... hell even a C6. One of my asst. instructors has a Z06. Every time I see it... I am reminded I have goals to still attain. : )
