...a car that cost five times LESS than the GT I meant :-)
Porsche Accuses Nissan of Cheating on GT-R Nurburgring 'Record' Lap Run

The Nissan GT-R is faster than Porsche's 911 Turbo, GT2, GT3 RS AND Carrera GT. All these cars were tested around the Top Gear track, all driven by the same driver. The only Porsche car in the top 10 at 9th place is the Carrera GT with a time of 1:19:8 and the Nissan GT-R is 7th with staggering 1:19:7! At 1/10th of a second this seems like a ridicule small advantage but it is still an advantage for a car that costs close to 5 times more than the GT! I love Porsches, they have amazing technology and engineering but I'm sorry say that as Jeremy Clarkson they have a new "Yard stick" to compete against! The Nissan GT-R, just like its Skyline ancestor, is a rocketship that will challenge many acars to come!!
