Wow, nice write up for the GTR...75% of the article was raving about the GTR, not the R8.

And the r8 is phenomenal even according to previous Top Gear tests, so that puts things into perspective. However only in 6spd manual. The other tranny option is not that great for some reason

then i read the whole article,

it's pretty detailed, and very on the colloquial side

i loved this line:

"The GT-R is part car, part Terminator."
