What do you mean it won't exist? Preorders start soon and too much advertising has been spent for it to "never exist." Just because it'll be a bit of competition for the holy vette doesn't mean you should get upset.

I'd still choose the corvette, but the gtr looks like it'll be a pretty quick vehicle.

To save you from having to post, I'm a ricer ::)

13 second car defines thirteen seconds when you run a course at 20mph faster than anyone else
