The most fun is when you catch one with a temp plate in there back window coming home from the dealership,and they feel like their on top of the world

meth, alcohol, cams, 93 octane has me at about half a second short of tying this monster nissan but I'm sure the new GTR owner will NOT be a race car driver

The closest association that comes to mind cost wise is a NSX .. How often would you see those in a race when they were new.. or even better how often do you even see them on the road.

^^ yea, what he said. I'll just be happy to see on on the streets....let alone race one. Even if by chance I would run into one, i'm sure he wont even wanna gun it on the highway. I can dream though right?

it depends on the driver of the GTR. i ran into a lamborghini lp640 in elizabeth,NJ on rt 1&9 at a light near newark airport wen i was driving my 300zx TT. we lined up n he blasted off. i swear if i had my evo i would of def. tried n would of most likely won. my z looses traction wen boost hits at 3500rpm all the way 3rd gear so it wouldnt even be worth it, it sounded sick though

You can be a gt-r with your evo by selling your evo and getting a gtr. You can make the same peak hp/tq figures that a gtr will make but at the cost of driveability, reliability, etc.. Plus its power band will run laps around any equally powered evo.
