The Nissan GTR's REAL secret to it's incredible numbers at the strip and track

Come 2010, if it doesn't have 35 MPG at the wheels, it's all a mute point.

That may be true in the US, but you have to remember that a lot of people who buy GTRs have money and even oil to burn. Take this video for example. These guys don't care if a GTR Spec V gets 1 MPG.

Chippie.

Still driving a Bug Sal?

Please don't cross post. It makes you look like a spammer.

The real reason is that the "incredible" numbers are BOGUS, first, you have to add the amount of time to needed to complete a FULL lap at Nurburgring, not stop the clock 30 seconds or more early, and 149MPH and

No, it's you who seems bogus. The GTR does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds, 1/4 mile in 11.6@121 MPH.

Nurburgring in 7:38.

Corvette ZO6 did it in 7:43 The Corvette ZR1 will be lucky to break 7:40.

The GTR SPEC V has ALREADY done the Nurburgring in 7:25. The 0-60 ET is 2.5-3.0 Seconds

Those numbers are better overall than the Bugatti Veyron and SSC Aero.

The GTR Spec V is simply the BEST PRODUCTION SUPER CAR IN THE WORLD ON THE TRACK. Better than the Enzo Ferrari, Better than the Porsche Carrera GT, Better than The Bugatti Veyron, Better than the SSC Aero.

Only kit cars such as the Radical SR8

Radical SR3 and

Donkervoort D8

can beat it on the track. Those cars are all 1300 to 1500 lbs while the SPEC V weighs nearly 3 times as much yet is only a little behind them.
