[AWDTurboLuvr]

MMMmmm, ZR-1 and Z06. Looks like the tweaks to the IS-F made it handle better and look at the times for the V6 Stang...damn.

[Nightwalker]

I like how the GT-R is the ONLY car on the list that says "(all-season tires)"

U mad bro?

[JoshuaWong]

I like how the GT-R is the ONLY car on the list that says "(all-season tires)"

U mad bro?

The GT-R with all seasons is like 4 seconds off the GT-R without... which is still 5-6 seconds behind its rivals ZR-1, ACR

[flagella]

surprised to find lotus elise sc that slow.

[orgasm_donor]

OMFG

The GT-R isn't first on the list? I hope Satan likes the cold.

They took the turbos out to make it fair for the rest. :p

[maxx]

old model vs new?

[IMASA]

[1exotic]

looks like the best bang for the buck is the Ford Mustang V6.

but it's really ugly

[ilvtofu]

but it's really ugly

IMO the GT looks a lot better but the V6 is far from ugly

I guess their driver improved a lot seeing that the MKVI GTi is 6 seconds faster than the MKV

[hk20000]

the mustang is pretty cool packaging considering you are buying into a 330hp vehicle for like 25k....known to handle better than the gt on the skid pad too...

[Death2Theft]

Never thought i'd see the day when the base model mustang beats the WRC CHAMPZ STI OMGZZZZ LOLZ. Japs better step it up.

[Alphamale]

Japs better step it up.

:haha:

[dhari]

[bigzz786786]

The 2011 IS-F is almost 9 sec quicker than the 2008 IS-F. Weather Conditions? perhaps.

[dangonay]

[AWDTurboLuvr]

The 2011 IS-F is almost 9 sec quicker than the 2008 IS-F. Weather Conditions? perhaps.

New spring rates, upgraded swaybars and subframe bushings were part of the suspension modifications and the addition of a LSD were the biggest factors in the IS-F being alot faster.

What makes the Mustang V6's lap time even more impressive is that it spent 15 seconds on the track hitting the 114 mph speed limiter.

[Mancini]

The Corvette is impressive. It's in the company of [street legal] track day specials.
