The GT-R also won the "**** that's Ugly" prize.

Beauty is subjective, there is however no way to deny its performance

Not surprised at the winner, although I expected the Z06 to be nearer the front

Lotus have never been about straight line speed though

Saying that, a 12.7sec 1/4 mile time is still pretty bloody quick

Did you not see the TTRS go past at 9.1 seconds ? no ? it was going too fast to be seen on a normal camera

Amazing that the GTR is in the same ball park as the 458, never mind actually being quicker, god only knows what they are like when fettled.

So are R8's. You can buy a Supercharger kit for the V8.

At £25,000 it is a bit on the pricey side though. I think I'll give it a miss.

From the original 11, the only one I'd actually pay to own is the Ferrari (and maybe the 1-series as a run-about for her indoors)...

Indeed. There is more to it than booting up a long straight.
