Don't get me wrong, I love BMW's, but I also appreciate other cars that can perform. How is comparing the M6 to the GT-R retarded? Because the M6 is more luxurious it can't be compared to another performance car, is that it? That's fine that you wouldn't personally buy a GT-R, everyone has their preferences as they should. The thing is, when a car is in a similar range of performance as another, there will always be a legit reason for comparison.
The GT-R is a sportscar designed for the track. Its stiffer, rougher...etc. But it is much faster in terms of handling and acceleration. The M6 is a GT car meant for fast cruising and comfort with better built quality and prestige. Just because they are both roughly in the same price category with two doors doesn't mean they are comparable. Its like comparing a Bentley GT to an F458. It doesn't make any sense. As much as I love the GT-R, it is not THE car to be measured against everything else. Christ.
