While the GTR is quicker, I'd take a V8 R8 in a heartbeat over the GTR. I've met a couple GTR owners now and they are disgusted with Nissan. Despite buying an $80k car, you're still get the service quality and warranty of a Versa. Sure the V8 R8 (and V10 really) are slower than the GTR, but they are more exotic, are backed by a better company, and will turn more heads. I've driven an R8 on a track and it's an absolute hoot...best car I've ever driven. Haven't had the pleasure of driving a GTR yet. Only stalked by one (see picture on left).
