CHICAGO AUTO SHOW: The Tale Of TWO Nissan GT-Rs, WHICH Would YOU Have In YOUR Garage?

The Nissan GT-R has always been thought as one thing and one thing only. It's a speed demon. All else comes second. But at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, it appears that Agent 001 discovered something particularly interesting. That's because Nissan displayed a GT-R that appeared to have a more luxurious interior.

We use the term luxurious loosely here.

BUT, if you get the 2015 GT-R with the premium interior package, you can select an all-new Ivory color that essentially provides you with hand-stitched elements. Although I've always defended the GT-R's interior for being a high-quality space, now it is even more evident to the naysayers.

However, you don't buy a GT-R for the two-tone steering wheel and style points. You buy it for the brutal speed it can provide that makes it faster than most supercars — even "hypercars."

That said, would YOU rather have the more stylishly appointed GT-R or simply go for broke with the NISMO GT-R?

The sad thing is BMW doesn't even have a current or future car that can touch a GT-R.

The saddest thing is not a single Euro junk can touch this beast.

I'm expecting a lot from the next gen GT-R. That will be the ultimate supercar.

Both look cool and can't wait to see it on the streets and the two tone interior looks nice not blah like some one colored sports car interiors.

I love that graphite exterior. The interior does look good, just another reason why the GT-R is better than cars that cost far more than it.

Matte finishes and black wheels...bleh! The red one looks much better.

I would definitely take the grey one. A lot more beautiful than Porsche 911, which most likely uses a lot of Made in China parts like BMW and Mercedes do.

The Europe worshippers cry in their beds whenever they think of GT-R. Why? Because it is truly the pinnacle of Japanese craftsmanship, which has the soul of the Rising Sun.

But if you look at the Euro junk, you can tell they are overpriced for no reason. When will Aston Martin stop using counterfeit Made in China parts?

The GT-R is a special car, but its a niche car that really only appeals to a small population. No question of its potency, its strong. That said its boring to look at. Its not an exciting vehicle.

When will Cadillac actually beat Hyundai by the way?

And of course, if the car looks good, then the car is some high performance car, isn't it?

This is why the majority of buyers are as foolish as you are.

I'll go with the matte Gray. I've been seriously considering owning one as my next car. The GTR is an absolute beast.
