I think you are stuck in the late 90s, early 2000s with what is on cars these days.

cmon, can you at least give me 2010?

that thing has over a ton of downforce and purpose built race tires and they're calling it a production vehicle. I'm just not buying it.

The GTR is a way more rounded out and daily driver than the ACR is. shite, the Z06 as well.

see my other posts. I'm just hung up on calling it a production car when the thing has it's own set of race tires made specifically for it. On a race course tires are everything. As evident the 1.5g's the thing pulls around the skidpad.


So because it has tires developed for it it is not a production car?

I don't think that's how that works.

What is your definition of a production vehicle?

No one is arguing that at all. Since the 90's when the ACR was created it's been known as harsh and unlivable for daily use, but a monster on the track. It's an enthusiasts car designed to beat cars that cost 2 to 10 x's more. They make that point quite a few times in the video.

My uncle has an older Z06 like 05-07 somewhere in there

Badass car, is fun to drive; just don't think I could ever drop that kind of money on one

Wonder how many other "production vehicles" are rolling around the streets with ceramic fricking brakes.
dude, even the 5th gen camaro z28 has ceramic brakes and rotors bro. That's no big deal on higher end performance vehicles these days.

Yeah, that's nice but how can you make claims that the ACR isn't a production vehicle then link me to a highly modified GTR? I just don't get why we are talking about a Nissan.
