It could be argued that the conditions suited the Nissan better, but still the Porsche was faster. It also stopped better and showed no sign of brake fade, where as the Nissan's pedal was becoming very long at the end of the lap. The Nissan was an incredibly impressive for a 1740kg road car ,but it never felt as fast as the GT2.
Almost, and Four times as much hey...
I haven't seen a die cast model of the GT-R yet at our local stores , I'm not sure I'd get one though sinceb I'm not a fan of it's design ... depending on the workmanship & the colors available I guess ...

The Nissan puts in a good game so folks at a different price point can play now.
For me as well, the Porsche as a performance status car is unquestionable. I doubt I'd desire a GT-2 for daily driving where the GT-R would have no quibbles. $$ no object, I'd take the GT-R in my current mind frame, then use the extra $$ other ways.

Finally....
As pointed out in the thread about the ring, there are just so many factors that apply to a lap time, that a given lap time there means almost nothing. The fact here (at least in this test) is that the GT2 is a faster car than the GT-R and yes, it should be due to its price.
