I’m surprised these aren’t SS models.

Ferrari is basically turning all “sales” of its cars into leases. You are basically just licensing the car from them.

Turbo S, not a Turbo, but touche.

Interesting. So it’s all basically not “real world” data.

I’m glad someone agrees with me. I feel like a crazy person squawking in the background about how these are all “hot lap” wonders but would actually suck on a track day.

Touche. Buuuuutt...are there any tracks where a 911 Turbo holds a faster lap than a GT-R of similar vintage?

As long as you aren’t on a race track.

The NSX is unconventional at this price point, but it’s not the only game in town. Also, when the GTR came out, it was pretty unconventional and re-wrote the rule book/raised the bar.

Agreed, but the NSX is no super model.

The “multiple laps” issue is an interesting one. I wonder if the GTR would do better in a longer race due to the NSX depleting its batteries.

.75 seconds is a pretty long time by racing standards. At decent speeds, .75 seconds is multiple car lengths.

Is that a Corvette logo on what looks like a touch pad but I assume is an ash tray?

All I know about this car is that it got beat by a Camaro SS (I believe 1LE) on Motortrend’s driver’s car of the year test.

I really miss the days when cars were named after positive adjectives, nouns, or verbs. So much better than random numbers and letters.

At first I thought “Why would you ever buy a Doug car?” as he “uses” them somewhat heavily.

Don’t you mean *puts sunglasses on* “Huracan” Matthew?

This just occurred to me, but why doesn’t the T56 get as much love as the LS series of engines gets? I mean, it features a lot of the same high notes: durability, simplicity, ability to handle lots of power, easily accessible, high production numbers.

And people, particularly in the media, wonder why the media has lost credibility among the populace.
