Saturday, March 08, 2008    Autocar: GT-R vs M3 vs GT3 track comparison   An Autocar test, brought to us courtesy of YouTube. Notice how poorly the new V-8 (m92) M3 does in the testing: it's heavy, has slow steering, terrible brakes (2 fast laps = an extra 4" of brake travel; third lap = brake pedal on the floor!), and it's not particularly fast (0-60 in 5.2 seconds!). The GT-R does of course win, despite being the heaviest (and not the most expensive). Note that this is the standard model of the GT-R, whereas the GT3 and M3 are special models of the existing lineup. When the GT-R V-Spec comes out in another year, the results will be even better in the favor of the GT-R.

Nevertheless, can the tiny sales of this car sustain it until an all-new S2000 is ready? Is there even a new S2000 in the pileline? Only Honda can qanswer that question...   View and add comments: Trackback: Trackback Link and count:;[] Permalink for this post:  See similar posts in these categories: Honda - Acura | Honda - S2000 Search for similar posts on the web: Google It!
