For top end speed sure. 600lbft is no laughing matter. As for a dig, forget about it

If they are both on a roll the GT500 should be able to keep up with a stock GTR, but off the line the AWD is superior.

Yea, no doubt the GT-R would yank it out of the hole or around a road course but from a freeway roll, I think the GT500 might have a slight advantage.

There are what, 2 or 3 cars that can beat a GT-R out of the hole? The Veyron and the Porsche 997.2 Turbo? That's a pretty short list.

It also depends what year gtr u r talking about. From what I know. The 2013 does 0-60 in 2.7 and the quarter in 10.8....the 2009 ran 11.8 in the quarter and the 2012 ran 11.2.....i read from inside line that the 2012 porsche 911 turbo s (997.2) runs the quarter in 10.9 stock..and 0-60 in 2.8-2.9....i loove that porsche too....although i think the gt2 is the most raw porsche out there

For the money, there is not much that can beat a GT-R.

Saw a bone stock GTR 13' run a 10.7 @ 12X it still had temporary tag on it. So quiet sounded like a Camry on the pass effortless.
