Before stating that gtx can beat gtr, we need to compare price of gtx to other cars. Beating gtr alone is not a reason to buy gtx. Try to beat gtr engineering, not the speed. =P They are producing gtx just to beat gtr? which explained why american automotive is still "long way to go".

It needs to go against a host of other supercars such as Ferarri, Lambo and even niche hypercars such as mclaren 722 SLR and koenigsegg ccx... comparing a 500,000 car to a 50,000 (to 80,000 depending on where you are) is like comparing apple and orange... Both cars are in a total different category.. one's a mass produce (well... GT-R is quite mass produce) while the other is a handcraft piece of work.
