    I'm impressed by the Camaro Z28 and dissapointed by the R8 V10 Plus.

    They released times a month or two ago. Lots of surprises imo.

    Main article link is broken.

    Interesting bins they used. I think they could have done a bit better than just dollar value but i suppose that is important to alot of people.

    A few standouts but otherwise things are pretty comparable.

    I'm impressed with the E63S. The fact it's faster than the little Jag coupe is what really surprised me. And 3 seconds faster than the RS7 (another high perf huge sedan) is pretty impressive.

    I don't know, it's lap time matched the EVO X, that's not bad.

    Well when the engineers at Chevy decided to mount 11" rims with 305 wide tires on the front you know they meant business

    Not to mention it also has monotube shocks with F1-style spool valves.

    I see a 3.10.6 on the list for lancer evo X se. IS350 is a great handling car by all accounts just needs more power. 335i is still quite a bit faster and now that MB has gone turbo with the C class that car will be too.
