GT-R http://www.gtrinformation.com/2009/12/911-v-r8-vgt-r/ http://www.gtrinformation.com/2009/12/911-v-r8-vgt-r/#comments Mon, 14 Dec 2009 22:26:16 +0000 admin http://www.gtrinformation.com/?p=149 Here we go again: someone else is putting up new competitors against the Nissan GT-R. We've seen this repeatedly since the Nissan GT-R R35 was unveiled, and it is not news to any of us that the GT-R keeps winning. Well, this time the competition has been upped as we see the GT-R coming up against two absolutely incredible European monsters in the form of the Audi R8 V10 and the Porsche 911 Turbo PDK. Couple this with the fact that we're seeing the comparison of the 3 vehicles as driven by 1 driver, on the same circuit course, on the same day, and it makes the results and their fairness particularly intriguing!

Definitely worth a watch as the guys at AutoCar UK did a great job on this side by side. I wont divulge the outcome, but I will say this: the GT-R is repeatedly classified as the super car benchmark by which all others are measured, and we all know how true that is.

Hope you enjoy this video as much as I did. And, seriously, are they just going to keep bringing new challengers up to fight Godzilla? If so, I'm fairly certain we'll keep seeing the challengers get knocked-out, because this heavyweight champion of the world will be holding its title belt for quiet some time to come!
