Default A blow to you Skyline nut-garglers

So I was watching a show on the Discovery channel about ultimate-automobiles or something along those lines, and it was shown that the Porsche Cayenne (yes the overpriced, rich soccer-mom SUV) completes a full circuit around the infamous Nuremberg Ring faster than a Nissan Skyline GT-R.

I for one found that to be hilarious....seeing as how so many of you nut yourselves over it's non-stopable performance...

Comments?

That's because the Skyline is seriously nuetered to comply with Japanese HP regulations. The aftermarket is when the Skyline really shines.

a porsche cayman is an 05.
when most skyline gt-r's are 98ish at the latest.

also, in japan, a gt-r is probably half the price of a cayanne.

i really dont understand why people are always so quick to talk shit about a skyline, when they really dont know what they are talking about.
its not a supercar, it was never made to be one. but it comes pretty close, and in the countries they are sold, it does it at a very fair price.

it's not the cayman i'm talking about, so why talk shit about something you know nothing about?

I've seen far more people bash the Skyline on this site than support it lately, much less "sack-ride" it...
