This car reminds me of when the NSX came out in 1990 (I just dated myself by saying that
). I don't get what all the hype is, on this car. I think the car is nothing special to look at. I've seen a bunch of them at the BestBuy meets and I just don't get it. It's a Nissan!!!
A very fast Nissan, but it's still a Nissan!

The technology in this car is amazing, and it is going to trickle down to lesser cars as it becomes cheaper. This generation of the GT-R is the first one officially sold in US, and its a great performer too. What other reasons do you need for people to be hyped about this car?

It's just another Jap car. Big whoop. It's over hyped. So it's got all this great technology. Blah, blah, blah... Does it have the flux capacitor as well? Can it go back to the future?
Nothing against you Joe (You know you're my boy
, but I'm just not a fan and I still don't get why everyone is drooling over this car.

It has been a year since I saw it introduced at last years LA Auto Show. Really I am over it.

What is all the fuss about? All the fuss is about this~
http://kr.youtube.com/watch?v=zqBBL7WYWIs&feature=related (Top Gear track test of GT-R)
http://kr.youtube.com/watch?v=X9Jl8yLeV3A (Bruno Senna compares GT-R to 911 Turbo)
http://kr.youtube.com/watch?v=qreQwTeaVWY&feature=related (R8 vs 911 vs Elise SC vs EVO 10 MR vs WRX STi vs GT-R)
Does brand alone make a car great? Or does a car make a brand great? I believe it is the latter. Even our beloved BMW makes a flop of a car once in awhile.
Admittedly, the GT-R is not a very attractive car, but it is a super car killer. No matter what anyone says. I am a huge fan of the coveted M cars, but this Japanese bred road warrior will run rings around the best any brand can dish out. Someone else may bring out something better in the future, but for now... performance wise, the GT-R is arguably the king of the road.
