if I have the money around, I dont mind to have a GT-R.

At least with GT-R Im sure I will be able to smoke almost any cars on the road. Even those *heavily* modified ones.

Who cares if it weight like 3800 lbs? it can still beat a Porshce. Im happy, for 1/2 the price. and just throw another 2K to the GT-R with HKS HiperMax, it can go another 2 seconds faster @ the track. This engine has mad potential ...

Z06 is a joke compare to the GT-R.

Z06 is anything but a Joke, it still rapes just about all the other cars on the road.
it probably has better top end with 7.0L of displacement. its known to leave the 911 turbo and ferrari f430 behind with its top end power in the straights

I wouldn't call z06 a joke. But I am happy that GTR is living up to its hype, perhaps exceeding the hype.
I do see alot of reviews where GTR is a FAST car, but lacks the driver feed back the other comparable cars give out. Sadly that's going to be a trend, as some stated that drivers at the review preferred the m3 for fun factor.
Really makes me wonder about the V spec version. That'll be an interesting match up with ZR1...if what nissan is saying is true

i still dont know which review you are talking about. Link? All the reviews seem to agree that its one of the easiest car to handle and drive fast... The only review with GT-R and M3 in it is the german one, and they didnt say anything like that. There is one of the video reviews that said they prefer the feel of the porche GT3 despite that its slower..
