WOW, rave review...I can see why it came in 1st Place??? I swear, 90% of these car reviews probably have so much 'behind closed doors' politics going on you have to take everything w/ a grain of salt.

I had to laugh, 'cause I think if you consider the whole package (which includes price), my order of finish would probably have been exactly opposite of C&Ds order. Oh well...I guess that shows why I don't write for the mag.
It was a lap time race, I read the article in the mag and they go into more detail. The GT-R finished first on lap time, that is all. My only point was that C&D got a full 1/2 faster on the 0-60 and 2 seconds faster on the 0-100 compared to the other review.
