I swear WTF is Nissan doing.. That thing looks almost JUST like the 350's with a diffrent nose and back.(Sideview) Granted, I know how much HP and Tq it has but at the end of the day it's the 350z with a face lift..

If I were able to buy a new car in that price range and wasn't doing a spec battle.. the new M3 would be in my garage.

^Man, it does look like the 350...........The headlight design is to much in favor of the Z..........What happen to Nissan in the USA after the 91-94 SE-R? *sigh*..........Those were the good years...........

tiptronic works well once you start making about 700 to the wheels in a sentra.......

I am a ZO6 man.

I have seen many a Z06 run 126 MPH stock in the 1/4 mile. So they can stick the 121MPH Z06 test up their butts.

As far as handling and breaking goes the GTR looks damn good.

Now I am not saying the GTR is not a fast car but its all about the AWD. Ifr a Z06 catches this car on a role anywhere it will get dusted. That is a fact. That 3.3 60 run and 11.6 1/4 miles run is all AWD. So after that the Z06 is gone.

I want to see it for myself on a track "live" to be able to judge.

I agree on the Z06 being an amazing "budget exotic."

here's how i break it down, yes the gtr will be faster, but..

the corvette attracts women..
the gtr attracts men..

A 350Z with a larger, twin turbo motor, sophisticated AWD system, completely different tranny, 15 inch 6 piston fronts and 4 piston rear brakes.

To be honest, I don't see that much 350Z in it when I look at it. Even if it does resemble one, there are much worse cars to look like than a 350.
