EVO Mag: GT-R vs ZO6 vs R8 vs GT3

Taken from the NAGTROC website here is the link to the magazine article for the review. It is one of the better one I think that have been written since the cars arrival.

It's a good article. The GT3, R8, and vette are amazing cars. It's awesome that the GTR can holds it own with these cars, especially since the assumed bench mark for the GTR was the 911 turbo. I also like the fact that out of the 4 the GTR can be used more daily where as the others would be considered more as weekend thrill rides. The Vette comes close but with the GTR being able to carry more passengers it makes it more "usable".

The rear seats really don't look too usable but, the GTR could be used as a 3 seater.

Great read! Seems like very different driving experiences with each car. It's good that these guys picked adifferent car for each category. I liked the comparisons.

Actually you would be surprised. I got to sit in the back seat and it was enough room (i'm 5' 10"). It's not perfect but at least you can squeeze someone my size back there.

Was this behind the driver?

Yes it was but it really comes down to how tall the driver and front passenger are. If the driver and front passenger are tall (maybe six feet or taller) then consider the back seats useless to any normal sized adult. You could fit but it would be very uncomfortable.

Z06 vs GTR on the track would have been more interesting.
