Default Official, Nissan Announced GT-R Laps Nurburgring

STOCK GTR on STOCK tires
linky



The Nissan GT-R can now lay claim to being one of the fastest production cars in the world after GT-R chief test driver Tochio Suzuki completed the famous Nurburgring circuit in Germany in just 7 minutes 29 seconds. According to our records, this puts the GT-R in second place for fastest laps by unmodified production cars just behind the Pagani Zonda F which posted a time of 7 minutes and 27 seconds last November. The time completely destroys the GT-R's previous best lap of 7 minutes 38 seconds achieved last year in slightly damp conditions.

yeah, the mark-up on those things is gonna be insane for a while . . . there are rumors about a Spec-V version of the GT-R as well . . . I'd like to see what that could do
