Around a road course, the ZR1, Viper ACR and a few of the new Lambos, F-cars and MP12-4C are routinely faster.

However, for the price...there isn't a better all-around performer than the GT-R. Modified correctly, they are almost untouchable on the streets....hence the reason I sold my GT2 to modify my GT-R to the levels it will soon be at.

Truth is, there's only one other platform available that equals the GT-R with regard to making HUGE power, and being able to put that power down 'effectively' in almost all situations on street legal rubber; the TT Gallardos. But at well over twice the price of a 1,000+ whp GT-R (meaning the cost of a used Gallardo plus the cost of a UGR Stage 'R' setup)...the cachet of a owning a Lambo needs to be of great importance to jutify the cost.
I want a lambo. Actually a new GT-R vs a used Gallardo is probably going to be my next car decision in a few years.
