Ive always wanted a GTR, way more then a M3, there pretty much better in every single possible way and im going to try my hardest to get one.
Is there a cool GTR forum?

And people say there shouldnt be an AWD M3/M4, your silly, should ONLY be AWD M4's.

Seriously, 0-60 in 2.0! And I'm sure someone will mod it and get it from 0-60 in 1.7.

Oh yah like theres a even the slightest comparison between a Audi and a GTR, Not.
If they offered a M4 AWD then people could make there own decision, they'd sell like hotcakes.

0-60 must feel like being rear ended at stand still by a bus!

The fastest 0-60 I've ever experienced was in a 2012 CLS63 AMG. And that was only 3.9 sec. I can't even begin to imagine what 2.0 feels like...

Well obviously but the fact that a non exotic ~$100k Japanese car can beat the Bugatti in 0-60 is all worth gloating about

I think its just the world is changing. and the cars that are maxed out are getting caught up to...... before you know your typical mustang will be hitting 0-60 in 3 seconds.

i look at this like this, its about time someone caught up.....

True there used to be a day when breaking 4 seconds was mind blowing and now it's breaking 3. Crazy

I can't even imagine 2.0sec, how is that even possible? And after 60, it's obviously not going to be faster than the Veyron.
