Sorry, but the GT-R is a special car. Yes, the Z06 is a beast and in a different way a special car on it's own.
That said, I have also noticed that car dealers tend to rope off their high end cars, whatever they are. I remember when the S2000's landed, and the Honda dealers were very anal about a $32k car. No test drives, and so on. It was a bit ridiculous.
There's a Porsche/Audi dealer in DF/W that I visited, pretty much just to get a look at an R8. The Audi guys had that mentality. Then I went to the Porsche show room and 20 minutes later I was driving a turbo 997. I doubt they'd let me sit in, much less drive, a Carrera GT. Attitude is relative to the top of the line.
There's a huge difference in the attitude of salesmen at high-end lots. It's not very surprising that the Nissan dealers are uptight about the GT-R. They've got a car with a great deal of mystique and it's probably natural that they treat their average customers as the unworthy heathans.
