2014 Motor Trend Best Driver's Car
 

I was a bit surprised by the end result but am also glad that that car won.

Spoiler!

I'd be a happy man in any one of those cars.

Timpo 09-26-2014 12:49 AM
This is bs. We know GT-R was the first.

MX-5 = Not enough POWER, shitty 1/4 mile too. Same goes for Lotus Elise.

New cars only that were available at the time of the test. The Miata will show up next year.

how important is AC on a track-oriented car?

The Z/28 model retains only one speaker for the seat belt chime, the rear quarter glass has been thinned, rear seats have been thinned, and most of the sound deadening has been removed in an effort to reduce weight inside of the vehicle.

Think Integra type-R. A/C was an option but for the true enthusiasts weight will not kill their vibe.

First, GT-R didn't win. Second, why on earth did they put VW Golf and Ford Fiesta? Let them compete with Civics and Corollas.

I am surprised the GT-R even ranked so high in the driver's car considering how heavy it is and all the stuff you read about how it's all computerized.

I think you mis-understood the drag race. The cars were used in the greatest drivers car so they just want to put them together and see. If you looked at the previous races there were always slower cars in the pack.

Absolutely loving the new Z/28. Every time I see a video on it I just fall in love even more.

There's nothing wrong with computers. If you're against technology, just get a 1960s light-weight British sportscar.

If you look at F1 machines, they're equipped state of the art computers and ridiculously high tech electronic devices.

Timpo 09-26-2014 11:51 AM
I like how GT-R and 911 left all the other cars in the dust right off the bat.

Not anti-tech, just when I think of the term 'driver's car', it's less to do with raw numbers and more to do with driving feel, dynamics and feeling connected to the car. Not aspects I seem to hear much about regarding the GT-R.

i swear Nissan makes a change to the GT-R every year so it can continue to participate in Motor Trend's Best Driver's car article.
