Except the GTR was all wheel drive not rear wheel drive and 1:08 faster around the nurburgring than the C5 corvette which was sold at the same time.
The R35 has apparently completed the Nurburgring in 7:19.1 which puts it just behind the Lamborghini Aventador LP750-4 SV at 7:18.
Thats why its arguably a supercar, because it can turn up to a big dollar track day and the guys in half a million dollar german and Italian mid engined supercars might look down on you for being there in a Nissan but they also dont want to get their doors blown off by one and they know its a possibility.
And? For the price of a major service and a set of tyres on either of them I can build a EG civic that could keep up with them too doesnt make it a supercar.
When it released it was significantly cheaper than "legit" supercars that it was every bit as fast as, these days I wouldnt say its as good value as it once was, its an old platform and old tech.
