Yup, I definitely prefer this GT-R to the current one made by Nissan.

You sure that’s not a Buick? I mean it has a waterfall grille. Oh wait no that’s a Merc....ury.

Love everything about this car except the chrome lines on the Grille. Looks like it’s wearing ugly metal braces

I actually prefer this design, without the chrome

I’m going with the OG. The Benz is pretty by adhering to the standard long hood, low roof blah-blah-blah sportscar trope, whereas the GTR is just so totally unique in design, to say nothing of performance...

I’d take it too - better looking, definitely nicer inside, and with how things are these days, not as more expensive as one would think.

For all the flack over the vertical grille bars (it can look odd), it’s not a new thing, but a heritage tie to old racing cars:

IMHO it looks like it should cost $50- 60k like a Camaro, not a $ 100k+ pure sports car.

I agree 100%. It’s a stunning car.

The AMG GT really needs to have some kind of actual color on it. The proportions are low and wide, but in the inevitable boring luxury car colors like black and silver, it lacks presence. It’s just there.

That’s a purty car, but those wheels are ruining it. They look like they belong on a Mustang whose only mod is wheels.

Were I ever a lottery  winner/amazing night of blackjack/organ harvester, I would want this car.

To hell with Corvettes, Porsches, and all that shit, this is stunning and you will not change my mind.

The R35 has just never done anything for me. I respect it, but that’s about it.

I just like how different it is. Come on the market over a decade ago completely out of left field and absolutely destroyed all other established supercars. Even now it’s still pretty high up the pack in terms of performance, and the look? An entire decade, and there’s still nothing that looks similar. That’s pretty cool in today’s design landscape

(it should have had a manual tho)
