We know you want the numbers and we're not
going to waste your time. Neither is Nissan.
Its 2009 GT-R hits 60 mph in 3.3 seconds,
quicker than the last Dodge Viper, Corvette
Z06 and Porsche 911 Turbo we tested. Keep
your foot pinned, and after another tap on
the upshift paddle it will clear the
quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds at more than 120
mph.

We're in a 2009 Nissan GT-R, helmet on,
seatbelt fastened, left foot poised to
release the brake and unleash Godzilla's
wrath. But we're not on a racetrack. In front
of us there are 22 miles and 402 turns of the
best driving road in the world, Southern
California's Glendora Mountain Road. We've
covered this ground thousands of times, but
today it's different. Today there are two
California Highway Patrol cruisers stationed
at either end of this twisting strip of
sun-drenched blacktop. It is our personal
playground for the afternoon.
The radio crackles the "All clear" and with
the GT-R's engine revved to a
launch-controlled 4,500 rpm, we release the
brake and let the big Nissan do what it does
best: twist physics into knots.
This process is repeated all afternoon in a
collection of today's quickest and most
capable road cars. The list includes a 2008
Audi R8, 2008 Lotus Elise SC, 2008 Porsche
911, 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X MR
and 2008 Subaru WRX STI. We didn't
discriminate: Rally cars, focused rear-drive
performance cars and everything in between
was invited to the party. In fact, there's
only one genre missing from this otherwise
comprehensive list — the big-power,
rear-drive supercar. But it wasn't for a lack
of trying.
Fact is, we asked Chevy for a 2008 Corvette
Z06 and we asked Dodge for a 2008 Viper
SRT10, but both refused to loan us their cars
— presumably because we'd be testing their
best metal against the almighty GT-R.
Sniff, sniff. Does somebody smell chicken?

For a few seconds, you give in to the
spectacle of driving a 2009 Nissan GT-R. This
car attracts its own entourage and then takes
you along for the ride. It's not just the
Skyline mystique, either. It's the fact that
even in production sheet metal, the R35 GT-R
looks like a one-off concept stolen from a
Southern California design studio. It has as
many hard contours as a Porsche 911 has soft
curves. You have the key fob, and still you
ogle it.
Soon, though, you point the GT-R down an
on-ramp and plant the throttle. The
effortless brutality with which the 2009
Nissan GT-R gathers speed is what you'll
describe to your friends — once everyone's
tired of talking about the styling, that is.
What you won't tell them is that you suspect
your supercar might be a sociopath. It
doesn't flow around corners like your E46 BMW
M3 did, nor does it transmit feedback through
the steering wheel for the sheer pleasure of
it.
Instead, the 2009 Nissan GT-R bends asphalt
to its will. When it talks to you about tire
grip, you get the feeling it's only bothering
because you're part of its great plan to
break free of the Earth's orbit. Should it
ever achieve this, you imagine that its
conversation will cease and it will simply
expel you into the airless void. Until then,
though, you have the conn.
