The Z06 was one of my top pics for a future car of mine considering I love the looks and the idea of having that fast of a car for ~50k. I've never heard of it lacking low end. For the price of a 2012-2013 GTR, do you think you'd prefer a used 911 Turbo/Gt3 or the GTR?

Coming from a supercharged Elise and Cayman S owner, the GT-R is easily as fun and interesting to drive than both my cars. I was very impressed and I'm hard to impress. I thought a C6 Z06 was cumbersome, numb and torqueless below 4,000 RPM.

I'd take the 911 over a gtr at the same price point. For 70 you can get a 2010 Gtr but only an 07 gt3.

I test drove a stock 2010 GT-R this week and let me tell you, that thing is FULL of soul. The acceleration is brutal, the brakes will put your brain into the back of your skull and it handles and feels like my 3,400 lbs 3 series not a huge supercar. You can hear the mechanical noises of the transmission doing it's thing and the stock exhaust sounds great. I've read many times it feels like a boring Playstation game but my personal experience is that it's just the opposite.

That's a far cry from an 8 second Godzilla. Much more like a 9 second Godzilla. Still damned impressive for a 4,000 lb chunk of ugly.
I am disappoint that you didn't go on a ramble about how your amazing Crossfire.

If you had a Crossfire and a GTR parked in the middle of a filled stadium, you would probably only have say 112 out of the 30k people looking at the Crossfire. And more than likely, 95% of those 112 are elderly people who cant see well at that distance.
