Rice Rocket Eater


Growing up American-Born-Chinese, my parents always said it was more nutritious to eat rice than it was to eat its Western cuisine substitutes, namely bread and pasta. Well mom, how about this mean machine?

The GT-R, the latest iteration on the famed Skyline series of cars from Nissan, undoubtedly eats rice rockets for breakfast. It eats "pasta rockets" too (ahem Ferrari, Lamborghini) and "bread rockets" (hi Aston Martin and Lotus). Here are some of its startchy stats:

0-60 time: 3.2 seconds
0-100-0 time: 13.9 seconds
480 bhp + 430 lb/ft torque
Price: Only $79,090 USD!!!

For the price of one Lambo, you could have nearly 4 of GT-Rs!
