AMG GT R is the better buy according to me... Not all people modify and tune cars...

Yeah, pretty much. By the time this AMG GT R came out, R35 was already over the hill in its comparative performance to other cars.

But the high price for this Nismo can be justified with the fact that it is a Nismo - special edition of a car with special history (in my opinion).

I agree with you, the AMG GT R is the better buy. The AMG also looks better and sounds better. I think the AMG is beautiful, but I have never really liked the Nissan GT-Rs styling or sound.
