I hope they do a review similar to the "budge supercar shootout" and have Randy Pobst run them the same way he did with the GT500, Z06, and GTR in this video:

GT-R vs Z06 vs GT500: 5-Figure Supercar Shootout! - YouTube

However, I would like to see the GTR replaced with the ZL-1. Let's be real here...the GTR is on its own level, that car is simply a MONSTER especially in 2013 having 550HP.

BTW...How are you liking your 2013? (off-topic: if you run into the 1st to 2nd gear grind issue, several people have found that either switching to the MGW shifter or removing the rubber boot cures the problem. )
