Thumbs up EVO Magazine and the new Nissan-GTR

It's the R35..
Holy moly.

One hell of an article. Lets just say Nissan embarrass some serious machinery.
Go buy it, or read it in Smiths!

Thumbs up

From EVO

Flicking the stability control and drivetrain settings to 'Race' is unnecessary. This expands the opportunity to feel the rear slip under power but you don't need to push that hard to run away from the R8. in fact, you find yourself short-shifting or soft-pedalling the throttle to give the Audi a chance to catch up so you can see how hard it is trying. The game has moved on
Great articles and the lap times ..............

NISSAN GT-R 1:21.7
PORSCHE 911 GT-3 1:22.6

I'll have mine in black please

Wow, Evo raving about a new model! Who'd have thought?

Wait until the replacement comes out to hear the truth.

Always found them to be equally as harsh when a model deserves it IMHO

Theres a 2 part Autocar podcast available through iTunes (Chirs on Camera) with a test between the GTR, M3 and GT3, it's worth a watch!

Still think I prefer the GT3 after this test, the GTR is a car that seems to drive itself for you, still, it's an impressive piece of kit!
