Motor week has always been bias in favor of domestic cars.

@tom11zz884 Are you deaf? The commentator clearly states why it's slower than Nissan's claim. 2.9 sec is under IDEAL conditions. You know what ideal means? /rant :D

swirl marks through out.

TEMPERATURE MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR SMALL DISPLACEMENT HIGH OUTPUT ENGINES THAT RELY ON FORCED INDUCTION. THATS WHY THE 3.5 TO SEXTY

@Clatik

3.5 sec 0-60 ?

.

WTF ???

I blame the driver he was to faaaat

.

not even the 530hp & the massive torque could cope with the additional driver weight

[Clatik]

@tiagoko1 Yeah I agree with you on the tires. But it was my understanding that hotter temperatures ( say 85+ degrees) could lower the output of horsepower due to the gas evaporating before it has time to reach full combustion in turn reducing output. But at cooler temperatures (say around 65-75 degrees) the gas can reach full combustion giving you more HP output.

[tiagoko1]

@Clatik It doesn't effect engine output that much but effects but effects largely tyre grip and the grip of the road, and from 0 to 60 every bit counts!

[pswmetalmonkey]

thats a drag strip... not a track.. Americans don't know about corners.

[Clatik]

I guess the guys complaining about the 3.5 sec 0-60 time don't know how hot temperatures can effect the output of an engine.

[mathewhumvee]

0-60 in 3.5, something wrong or they never used launch control

My dad has a 2011 GT-R and my neighbor has a 2012 GT-R as well :) check them out on my channel!
