This week saw the unveiling of a new racing simulator at the annual Gamescom video games trade fair, which took place in Cologne, Germany.

The Batmobile. The Tron Cycle. Ferris Bueller's 1961 Ferrari 250GT Spyder California. The Back to the Future Delorean. We could go on all day, but I'm sure you've gotten the gist by now.

The 2012 Nissan GT-R claws its way to 60 mph in three seconds, or less--and that's really the only reason we need to give it a perfect 10 on the MotorAuthority brain-explodometer. But that's not all the GT-R delivers, because power without traction only equals a big tire bill. Nissan's supercar--yes, supercar, not wannabe--has beautifully balanced...
