The 2014 GT-R could transform itself into a jet and fly you from New York to LA in 10 minutes. But then you'd have Corvette owners complaining about how loud it is while flying at full speed or how it doesn't land itself.
The fact that the GTR can land itself is part of the reason I would never get a newer version.

I'm on 20's and put down ALL the power in EVERY gear in 40* weather !! yes that means in the winter time i can pull 0-60 in 2.5 secs on 20 inch tires....

Do you know this from personal experience? About the PDK?

Absolutely....unless it is dictated by a good dealer (as mine is). The Germans dont build something not to be used and warranteed.

The GT-R is generous in providing all the tools – tactile and technological – you need to travel very quickly, but you still have to drive this car to get the best from it.

ANYONE who accuses it of being a cold-hearted computer game clearly hasn’t driven one, or doesn’t deserve to.
