Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the BMW 430 than the Nissan GT-R. The Nissan GT-R will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the BMW 430.

Convenience
With the BMW 430 you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Nissan GT-R, due to its larger tank size and better fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the BMW 430 is clearly a better financial choice over the Nissan GT-R.

Dimensions
Since the BMW 430 is much slimmer than the Nissan GT-R, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the BMW 430 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Nissan GT-R.

Handling
The BMW 430 has a larger turning radius than the Nissan GT-R, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the BMW 430 is significantly less powerful than the Nissan GT-R. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
The BMW 430 has much less torque than the Nissan GT-R, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the BMW 430 and the Nissan GT-R.
