What do you guys think?
IMO its not worth it.... twice as much as the normal one.

so lame, they essentially built the car to just do well on the ring for one lap... 80 second overboost to help it on the long straight, less practical now as a two seater and double the price? lame

The "ring" is fast becomming the gold standard to which everyone seems to judge the performance of a car now a days.
Building a car to solely complete the ring at a record pace seems pretty narrow minded to me. Bragging rights and nothing more.
I think I remember Prosche building "overboost" into one of thier 911's too for the same reason.

It doesn't impress me, I look at the back of the car and I see Cobalt! I can think of more attractive supercars for the same price!

OMG, it actually took you saying that to clue me in but yes, I see the resemblance too.

this car was(or still is) built to be #1 car for fastest lap time in Nurgburgring, we'll see if it really is this summer.

building in an overboost and deleting weight will probally help it get a good lap time at the ring where as much as i hate shifter paddles proves to be an advantage but i'd rather have a corvette zr1 which crushes the gtr on other tracks and races

I agree that these 'ring numbers are just bragging rights, but it's oh so entertaining...I'm sure some of you rather get home and watch your "stories", but this is the best kind of man-o-drama there is...
know that the new Focus RS will also come out with a 'ring monster to re-take the FWD 'ring time...they're going to offer track tires to customers as an option just so they can do so...stay tuned for the next episode...
GTR Spec-V...like the NSX-S are track tools and collectors' item...ppl who buy these aren't hurting for $$$. Like a Miss Universe, I can't afford her, but I'd sure like to have a romp with her for a wknd...

Awesome technology, nice design and relatively cheap compare to the competition.
Can't wait for it to hit the used car market 5 years from now... hopefully I can afford one by then. lol.

The dream would be to have an R35 as a daily driver, and a R34 as a track/show car.

The dream would also to be rich and have a gorgeous wife in your bed everyday... only the few get lucky enough to have all of this. I envy anyone who owns an R34.
