  16. The Final 11 Lotus Elise SC Porsche 911 Carrera S Renault Sport Clio Cup Nissan GT-R Audi R8 Aston Martin DBS Lexus IS F VW Scirocco 2.0 TSI Mitsubishi EVO X FQ-360 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 KTM X-Bow 5th = Lotus Elise SC 4th = Audi R8 3rd = KTM X-Bow and then down to the last two... Compliments of Autocar (UK) > Wheels the final determination and decision went this way... quote... "LAMBO GALLARDO/NISSAN GT-R" "It's hard to say which one of these cars was scarier or more exciting to drive across our road. The Lambo was so rapid at the top end, yet if anything the GT-R was even crazier, mainly because it could generate so much speed into and out of the corners. There was one bend that we'll never, ever forget: a fast but totally blind uphill right-hander approached at well over 160Km/h. In the Lambo you'd have your eyes closed before turning in, heart in mouth, as the 560-4 threw itself towards the apex, almost on full throttle but not quite. In the GT-R the same bend was completely flat. It went in on the limiter at 180Km/h and came out at exactly the same speed. In sectors one and two, where the wretched speed limiter played no part, it obliterated the others with times of 31.3sec and 51.5sec (Lambo at 32.1sec and 53.4sec). Only in sector three, where the Lambo spent much of the time beyond 190Km/h and actually touched 210Km/h at one point, did the GT-R get dropped, losing over three seconds to the Gallardo as a result. So despite the fact that the Lambo set the fastest time of all, at an incredible 1min55.9sec, the GT-R had to get the nod overall. Take its speed limiter away and it would have gone a good three seconds faster, thrashing the Lamborghini and beating the KTM - supposedly a pure-bred road racer - by over 5 seconds. Wow." "AND THE WINNER IS..." "It really is an extraordinary car, the GT-R, be that on road or track and seemingly in any conditions. Yet perhaps its biggest achievement is how readily it delivers such monumental performance without being in the least bit unpredictable. Anyone with a driving licence and a half-decent level of self-restraint could drive a GT-R quickly without scaring himself. And that's before you factor in its price, at which point the argument in its favour goes beyond all doubt. It is, without question, our best driver's car of 2008. And it hasn't even officially gone on sale in Australia yet."
  17. Diagnostics is a new ball game though isn't it? And if I were a Nissan mechanic on 'not very high rates of pay' I'd be awfully tempted to do work on the side... so long as I wasn't sick of seeing cars at the end of the day/week
