Do they offer a GTR spec race car?

This is not a road car, folks, it's a professional race car. It's not just a Nismo 370Z with some CF overlays and stuff taken out. It's gonna cost money.

That's obvious. I merely stated that I'd rather have a car that is almost half the cost and could probably still beat this "race car".

Going from a $45k Nismo and removing all the interior and adding a better clutch/flywheel, a roll cage, and a differential/oil cooler is not worth an additional $120k over a regular Nismo.

This is a spec racer. It's not meant to destroy all supercar in a single bound. It's meant to meet a performance specification and compete.

Don't like the price? Don't buy one. Everyone just assumes they're the target demographic for this vehicle.
