Some say the Gtr is boring and uninspiring and drives itself.
Reading the latest evo I found this quote and for me pretty much is spot on.
"With the dampers in comfort, the four-wheel drive system in race and the traction and stability systems also in race mode , it's a wild, intoxicating ride. There's so much performance to unleash, such superb front end response to work with and always the threat of the rear snapping wide on corner exit. No question the Gtr keeps you busier than any other car here and your every input becomes crucial because of the raw speed that this thing generates. In these conditions I'd wager the R8 and the 911 have a little more grip- just because their tyres are less dry road/track-optimised and they're certainly calmer things to exploit , but the excitement that pours back at you with the Gtr is something else. It seems that every corner, fast or slow, requires technique to master and usually a correction to help smooth progress. I know there's a general sense that the Gtr is a bit dull,but when you're attacking a great road in one, that perception is laughable. It's a proper monster."
