Message	Come on folks aren't we splitting hairs here? If a person can afford anything north of 60K and on a 2 door car no less will lump the 911, ZO6, 2008 M3 and the GTR in the same load. So what if the GTR is a few thousand more then the ZO6. Heck, the ZO6 is usually matched against the 911 and the is a larger price diff then the GTR and the ZO6. So who cares?!? The thing is can the GTR hold its own with a Nissan badge and against the likes of these other high end powerhouses. C.H.R.I.S Clean-Handsom-Responsible-Intelligent-Sentry
