Nothing Gets The GTR Owner Worked Up More Than the Sight Of An M6

[jnkirk1974]

It's funny. I NEVER drive to intimidate people. Never try to race. Keep to myself, etc.

However, it never fails that when a GTR pulls up next to me, they start revving the engine and trying to toy with me.

Yes, I know the GTR puts the power down significantly better. The difference is.....I don't care. I still feel superior.
No need to prove myself to them.

Just an observation. Thank you, drive through.....

Generally speaking, I feel GTR owners are generally angsty drivers, which is why I love to mess with them. Too easy

On the highway, I may have a fighting chance. Not thinking it would be close, from a complete stop. Although, maybe I'm not giving my M6 enough credit.

Those GTRs are wicked out the box. Modded up they are just plain nasty.

From a dig, I won't even bother - save your gas and your respect and just tip your hat. Same goes for the RS7 and CLS/E 63 AMG S, Panamera Turbo IMO - those cars have easily repeatable sub 3.5 second 0-60's

I agree, about the gtr drivers I don't even acknowledge them and pretend I'm texting ( actually I do )

what is cool about the GTR is that its fast as hell. whats cool about the M6 is that it has a lot of luxury, more style, classy, and fast as hell. i pick M6

[M6-Coupe]

GTR is fast with no doubt and can beat M6 from standstill due to AWD, but when GTR cannot take advantage of traction and both car have traction issue to jump off the line (wet road) or at rolling start it's different story ...
M6 is a monster and smoke most of high performance/fast cars.

I guess the guy at red light you met drove a used CBA gtr owned by some kid who still lives with his parents spent all his hard earned money (probably as a starbucks brista) towards financing his beloved baby, and thats probably why he took a red light race so serious.
However most DBA gtrs(post 2012 model) are within 75-85k range and brand new could
touch 100k, and those owners are far more responsible adult driver who dont bother to prove their success at public roads.
purely subjective view, just my 2cents

[Twitch Massacre]

I know a couple GTR owners. At least 2 of them own M6s too, others have your usual Italian thoroughbreds as weekend cars as well. So I can't say I completely agree with this. It's not like the M6 goes for 2x the MSRP of the GTR and causes GTR owners "sticker envy" or is even a car to which the GTR is usually compared to by the press. The GTR is a great car in its own right, not my cup of tea as it seems a bit unrefined to me and i'd rather have a 911 Turbo over it, but still a great car.

From a roll, I've taken down a few of the models from the earlier years (2009-2011). They are beasts, but mythical ones at times depending on the model and driving situation....

Yes, GT-R, R8 V10+ and so many cars

Right.. at 200-250 kmh true that. I thought I was missing something here.

Not only 200-250 km/h but also:
0-250
0-300
50-200
50-250
50-300
100-200
100-250
100-300
200-300
250-300

Yes you missed all of them

[jnkirk1974]

Of course, so much of this depends on the driver. My father has an R8 V10. Theoretically, that car should take me. However, I'll school him all day, every day in my M6.

Put an 80 year old woman in a Gallardo and I'll destroy her in the M6

Who cares really..
After all the GTR is and always will be just a Nissan.

End of story.

That's a whole lot of brand snobbery there. Regardless of what the badge on it says it's still an unbelievably good car.
