Nissan GT-R vs. Bentley Continental Supersport: Will The REAL Beast Stand Up?

You know the drill by now. So far, we've stacked the Nissan GT-R against the Corvette ZR-1, Ferrari 599, Porsche 911 Turbo GT-2, Shelby GT500 Super Snake, and even two Scion tC drift machines.

Next on Godzilla's menu: a monstrously powerful, outrageously expensive sports coupe from Bentley.

Bentley? Are we insane? Not really, but take a quick run through the specs and decide for yourself:

I'm impressed how well the Bentley held up, it's 200lbs heavier then an H3!

Yea Bentley got off the line better then I expected. But you are comparing a GT to a purpose built sports car so in the end the Nissan won. To bad its cheaper to replace the tranny fluid in the Bentley then the Nissan! lol

Odd comparison, but either way, the GT-R is Awesome.

I'd rather have the 599, ZR-1, 911, GT500 or the Bentley. Regardless if they cost more or not, I have heard too many horror stories about the reliability and breakdowns the GT-Rs have. Sure they are nice, but at around 70k I'd rather buy something else.

To be fair, the issues affect only 5% of all gtr's.

Cool video.

If I wanted a Brit GT, I'd go for an Aston over a Bentley any day.

In the February issue of AutoCar, GT-R defeated both new 2010 Porsche Turbo and R8 V10. GT-R also posted the best lap time around Castle Combe(UK circuit).

What an absolutely dumb comparison. These are two different types of cars. A GT-R driver wouldn't be seen dead in a Bentley and vice-versa.
