It's already hot at 11 a.m. as we pull our 2009 Nissan GT-R into the visitor's parking lot at GM's proving grounds in Arizona. The Japanese supercar looks like a spaceship next to the aging, 1960s-era brick buildings that front the massive desert test facility on the outskirts of Phoenix.
Although the few GM employees who see the GT-R barely pay it any attention, we suspect they know why it's here. Somewhere deep inside this test facility there's a 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 getting prepped for a comparison test, and now the competition has arrived.
We make a few calls and sign a few release forms before a Cyber Gray ZR1 emerges from the main gate and pulls up next to the GT-R. The driver gets out, hands us the keys and gives a friendly warning, "Go fast carefully."
From here on out, it's the King Kong of Corvettes versus the Godzilla of Japan. We'll drive both cars more than 300 miles back to Los Angeles before putting them on a dyno, running our customary round of instrumented tests and wrapping it all up with hot laps on the road course at Streets of Willow.

so let me get this straight. vette fans are either 50yr old viagra poppin assholes who think they can relive their youth.
or....gay whitefags..hahahaha
the difference is more people will marvel at the GTR when they see it. and everyone will just think the zr1 is....just a corvette. u see them all the time. nothing special.
makes as much sense ... ( 3 hours ago by 304teddy)
makes as much sense as the rest of your posts. if nothing else youre consistent.
man the corvette ... ( 3 hours ago by donisthabomb1)
man the corvette was made for old dudes who want to relive their youth. its pathetic. most owners of vettes are 50yr old douches. dont believe me? check their owners clubs hahaha. u gotta have less than half a head of hair to join.

my 26 year old friend with his badder than anything youll ever own Z06 would kick your ass in any performance driving test.
Be a bigger man. F ... ( 3 hours ago by chillpickle420)
Be a bigger man. F those hillbilly haters. The Nissan GTR is not a ricer. I think any car can be turned into a ricer. If you stick on tacky aparel all over your car like a wing and fart exaust you could have a ricer. Even if it is a Ford Escort. It has been a while since a domestic car has kicked so much great ass. Dont worry it wont last fore ever. So people who love Chevy (like me) be proud of being on top because there will all ways be something better coming up. (like electric oh yeah)
just cause youll ... ( 3 hours ago by 304teddy)
just cause youll never afford a vette doesnt other people in their 20s cant.
and my friends ... ( 3 hours ago by donisthabomb1)
and my friends single turbo 300zx would make that z06 his bitch in any drag race. so wats your point? you're still a whitefag who likes men licking his nuts. hahahahaha
afford a z06? lol ... ( 2 hours ago by donisthabomb1)
afford a z06? lol oh gee 75k is sooo much money. maybe to a lame ass trailer living redneck it is. shit for 75k i'd rather get something with class, not some redneck car.
hell for 120k, i'd rather spend 165k for an SL65 AMG. that would just make your pathetic attempt at style in a zr1 look foolish, seriously pull up next to a SL65 AMG and you can see how cheap the zr1 looks. hell even a GTR makes a vette look cheap, wanna kno why, u see vettes everywhere, my neighbor has one and he's 50!
yeah that shows how ... ( 2 hours ago by kaboom333)
yeah that shows how retarded you are. The GTR might be the ugliest thing ever. And of course the zr1 looks like the z06... its a corvette not a totally different car. Its like comparing the GTR to the GTR spec-v, almost the same thing, but unlike the spev-v the zr1 was given 133 more hp instead of nine.
"and my friends ... ( 2 hours ago by 304teddy)
"and my friends single turbo 300zx would make that z06 his bitch in any drag race"-bullshit-first you have no friends and second chris's Z06 has went 10.08. third i never said i like men licking my nuts i said i like you licking my big difference.

are you serious. ... ( 2 hours ago by donisthabomb1)
are you serious. corvettes are fucking played out. the C5 looked better. the C6 just looks retarded.
well the specV isnt out yet, and its focus is more on lighter weight and handling. too bad the extra 133 hp only gave it minimal performance gains. havent u heard ur dumbestic buddies are claiming stock 10 sec z06s. meaning the zr1 is actually slower? hahahaha

is chris your boyfriend??? HAHAHAHA
and yes you did say u would like a guy to lick your nuts if he's good at it. lol

well ur lucky i have a life and have to go to work tomorow, and i have a girlfriend that wants me to hop into bed. i know your a loser and dont have a gf or wife. but trust me, u'd rather be in bed with a chick than arguing on the internet with me. heres a tip, chicks hate guys who are haters and racists.
but i know its useless to give u advice on women, after all, u enjoy a guy licking ur balls. good luck with that lol
Come on people. I ... ( 2 hours ago by chillpickle420)
Come on people. I bet we could all be in our favorite car right now racing each other on a track and not one of us could win consistanly. Meaning these cars are realy close. Just so you know I bought my 2004 corvette for $35,000 and am in my 30's. The stock Bose system rocks and it is so freaking nice to drive! I am not one who gets hung up on what kind of cow or tree the insides have so my full leather interior works is quite nice to me. I have raced Z cars with my stock C5 and not lost YET.
Minimal performance ... ( 2 hours ago by kaboom333)
Minimal performance gains... 11.2 at 132mph compared to 11.7. Find a car that does better than that in the 1/4 mile for under 120,000. Not to mention the lap times. Too bad the ZR1 is better than any merc out there by unthinkable perportions. Now go join your ricer club with your retarded turbos, and spoilers on fwd cars. Ill take my hibilly V8 and stomp on you all day long.
