Clearly biased who cares about straight lines if the viper isn’t built for that compare it to the ta viper and I bet the viper gaps the nismo for half the price with a manual

Verdict: ignore the lap times. They are irrelevant when comparing cars that are both designed solely to compete on lap times..

This comparison is biased, but also bullshit. GT-R only has an advantage due to AWD. It can barely hold a candle to the T/A Viper.
