It has been tested to achieve 0-60 mph (97 km/h) times as low as 3.2 seconds with launch control and 3.9 seconds without (improved to 3.5 seconds in models produced since March 2009). Edmunds.com achieved a standing quarter-mile time of 11.6 s at 190 km/h (120 mph) using the GT-R's launch control system. Car and Driver achieved a standing quarter-mile time of 11.5 s at 200 km/h (120 mph). Evo magazine achieved a 0-100-0 mph time of 13.9 seconds. Autocar achieved a 0-100 mph (160 km/h) time of 8.5 seconds.
With a manufacturer claimed lap time of 7:29 min on standard Japanese market tires, the GT-R is currently one of the fastest production cars to lap the Nürburgring circuit, although Porsche accused Nissan of falsifying those claims in September 2008. Porsche claims to have conducted their own test of the GT-R using no modifications and stock tires and achieved a best time of 7:54. Nissan officially disputed Porsche's claim in October 2008. Independent testing has provided times of around 7:50 - 7:55 for the Nissan GT-R and 7:49 for the Porsche GT2 on the Nürburgring, though both tests were conducted with the track partially damp and with the use of automotive journalists as opposed to professional drivers.
