Default GTR vs S2000 (Japan Mountian Run)

I really think the S2K did really good consider it's only 1/3 the cost of the GTR, RWD & 240HP. Kind of surpise the GTR didn't win by alot.

What do you expect? The GT-R weighs 4000 pounds, thats's why it loses so much ground in the corners.

What is really funny is that if you buy a stock S and spend $20K on upgrades (KW supercharger, KW V3, wheels/tires, brakes... etc.) the S would probably spank the GT-R and you would have spent $25K less.

And most importantly, end up with a better looking car

Yep...it's posted in Street Encounters...I'll say here what I did there. I've driven on a twisty road with a GT-R and this vid shows a crappy GT-R driver and a decent s2k driver. A skilled driver will make an unskilled one look slow every time.

Yeah. I was flamed by some of them when i traded my 08 Z for the 07 S2K but i have no regret. S2K is more fun to drive & less nervous on corners IMO.
