2014 Nissan GT-R Track Pack squares off against Audi R8 V10 Plus

The team over at Motor Trend has pitted the new Audi R8 V10 Plus against the Nissan GT-R. While both of the bright red all-wheel-drive supercars are comparably matched in power output, the similarities end there. Audi offers a mid-engine aluminum coupe with a naturally aspirated V10 that spits out 550 horsepower. Nissan shows up with a more traditional coupe equipped with a 545-horsepower twin-turbocharged V6 at the front of the car.

The Head-to-Head video takes both cars to the Streets of Willow Springs in the California desert for some track work with professional racing driver Randy Pobst behind the wheel. After a day at the track, the pair head to the local mountains for some spirited real-world driving. One dominates on the circuit, while the other earns back its credibility in the canyons. We won't tell you which coupe comes out on top, but we think you may be surprised. Follow the link below to watch for yourself.

The Nissan GT-R would be my choice of cars had I the money to purchase one. The track edition has to be an all out monster anywhere, road or track.

Plus I would dare say it will prove to be more reliable and cheaper to repair when issues do come forth. Audi's like Beemer's and Mercedes are notorious for very spendy failures and repairs.

The ZR1 is the best domestic car going, I'm just not wanting to buy another car only to have a GT-R come along and take away my thunder.... Watched the TV show "Are you faster than a Redneck" and the GT-R episode just kicked butt all over the track, and pulled so hard, theat car is just that "The Car"
