That is 3 car lengths in the quarter mile and after 100 the ZR1 really pulls away. Not very close. Again launch control, a feature that the GTR has the benefit of, is now offered on the ZR1 so that 3/10's will be greater. Just look at the MPH, the ZR1 easily is a 11.0 car. As I said before the Z06 is a closer comparison for both price and performance.

For what it's worth... Nissan has fixed the launch control... it doesn't void your warranty anymore...

And yeah, the GT-R is z06 competition, I'm not really sure why people keep trying to throw it in the ring with the ZR1.... that's like putting the camaro SS against a GT500.... it just don't work right.

How much the back of a Prius looks like the back of an Aztec.

Its kinda like they said, "Okay, lets get a poll together, and whichever car they vote the ugliest of all time we'll use for inspiration. And they will STILL buy it. Hot dammit... I'll bet you a bottle of Sake they'll buy it."

Yea they look kinda big. This guy has a purple one with graphics all over it at work.

I'll try to get a picture next time I see it. I think everyone else on the Island has either sold theirs or put them away, I haven't seen either the black or white one in months.
