"We spent a great deal of time trying to figure out if the extra $71,000 you'd invest in the Porsche paid for anything objectively meaningful over the Nissan's still-lofty $107,600 base price. It doesn't, and even if money were left off the table, the 2013 GT-R is the better car."

"When push came to brutal shove, I didn't feel I could go as hard and as fast in the Turbo S as I felt I could go in Godzilla. The 2013 GT-R seems to wrap the road up in a bear hug. There's next to no chance it will let go. As Scott said, those left-to-right (or right-to-left) transitions defy not only reason, but also expectation. Your hands are filled with such an immense feeling of control that I'm hard-pressed to think of another car capable of annihilating a ribbon of asphalt in such a commanding way."

Remember a few years ago when the head of Honda demanded that the new NSX be faster than the GTR? That didn't work out so hot huh?

Love the GTR so much. Need one of those for the street and a new Lancer for a turn key rally car.

I know this is a GTR hread, but the new Subaru Brz is supposed to be just an awesome all around fun car to drive. I think the Scion version is the fr-s or something. Supposed to be extremely well priced to.

I wonder how much a wrecked GT-R goes for and what you could stick the innards in to. I guess Nissan already has that figured out...

The Nissan Juke-R started life last year as a publicity stunt for Nissan's European division, a bonkers way to show that the innards of a Nissan GT-R tuned to 545 hp could be chopped and grafted into the unattractive body of a Nissan Juke. After a brief worldwide publicity tour, Nissan Europe has announced it will build a few copies for those who need more insanity in their garages.

According to Autocar, Nissan has three orders already for the Juke, including two from Dubai, and will build the car based on orders received in the next few weeks. Cost wasn't revealed, although given that the process starts with the most expensive parts of a $97,000 GT-R -- such as its twin-turbo V6 and all-wheel-drive system -- the Juke-R's sticker surely falls into Lamborghini territory. Nissan has staged one race where the Juke-R beat three supercars; expect that contest to be repeated in the Middle East for the next several years.​

The 3 supercars...
To complete the public relations stunt that is the Nissan Juke-R, Nissan's European arm invited journalists to Dubai last week to put the Juke body over a shortened GT-R chassis through some paces, including a "race" with a Ferrari 458 Italia, Lamborghini Gallardo and Mercedes SLS AMG. I'll give you three guesses on what wins, and the first two don't count.

I saw something on Yahoo yesterday where they had a race in Texas with highly modified cars and a twin turbo Lamborghini won. There was a 1400+HP AMS tuned GT-R in the race which was the favorite but blew it's motor. Their Alpha 9 package looks sweet.

As for that Juke...would be so cool to pull up to a Gallardo on the street and spank it. The guy would probably just go WTF was that? Saw lots of Gallardos my last trip to the San Fran area and my only thought was would love to have a GT-R to have some fun with them :biggrin:. I see good used one's for only $70K.
