Huh? I think the GT-R gets tons of respect... hell, there are plenty of ricer fan-boys who for some reason (wrongly) think it's the world's best performing supercar in every category.
What it IS is hands-down the best performing platform for the PRICE. Or was, before Chevrolet decided to make the Corvette into an actual sports car.
I respect the hell out of its performance numbers. What I don't respect is that it's a $100+k car that looks like a $25k car and it has absolutely zero driver engagement (according to reviews anyway). IMO it's dangerously close to being the only thing a high dollar performance car can't be forgiven for: being boring.
