What sort of a bike is the Triumph Daytona 600cc?

Can it be compared to this likes of an R6, GSXR, YX-6R etc? Or is it no where near as quick as that group? I like the look of them, just they dont seem to be as popular as the others ive listed and insurance seems to be a lot cheaper? Also, (strange question)... But, what is an equilivant make for cars as triumph is for bikes? Thanks :)
