Going to Drive a GTR in Half an Hour

For the price it definitely can't be beat. If money is not an issue, it's either F430 Scud or GT3 RS for me...

i don't know that i'd personally choose a car like this over something like a 997S for even money. it's fascinating for sure, but it is a little muted. the computer never really got in the way; fairly transparent. it IS possible to engage the yaw control even in race mode if you push it hard. the harder you push it, the better it feels.

I don't think it is THAT ugly. I am surprised at how many people think it is. I mean, no it's nothing goregous but hell, it is quick. Glad you were able to report to us about it.

Now if they did this to it, it would be a bit better looking.

nothing's different; that's exactly what it looks like in good lighting in a different color. i'm not the best photographer! it's still an odd car, but you really have to see it in person before you can be sure you hate it.

I actually like the design a lot.

Ferrari don't have to worry about the Nissan, no one really cares about how fast the GTR is when they can afford an F430. They should however be ****************ting bricks about Lambos.

F360/430 is beautiful. Enzo is art. But the last thing they released was the 599 which honestly looks to me like a Kia supercar.

What was the last thing Lamborghini released ? The Reventon.

Enough said.

Yes, enough said indeed -No more blasphemy!

Of all the things I have ever disagreed with on this forum, this might take the cake. A Kia supercar? I don't even know what that means but it makes me want to cry. I would vote the 599 one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen in my life!

I can handle the GTR's looks. I think Ferraris look better, but what looks better than a Ferrari?

As for Lambo, here's the difference between Lamborghini and Ferrari (according to Jeph). Ferrari's design stands the test of time while Lambos' fade with the season. To me, they are fad cars. I think while they look good right now, they constantly chase "cool." I'm not calling them (the current production ones) ugly, I'm dying to have one. I just think they don't have the looks that stand the test of time. The looks of the Countach and Diablo make me think "I remember when those were cool." -Much like if I saw some one wearing a shirt with a huge Tommy Hilfiger logo on it.

Reventon? Put me down for a Veyron... I want some record breaking GO with my $1.4 million SHOW.

I respectfully disagree about it looking like a Kia supercar. I agree with Jeph. One of the best looking Ferraris.

I was driving home from work the other day and saw your friends GTR. I remembered it having a red dealer tag and double checked your pics when i got home and saw that they were taken at the car wash on spring road....small world....
