Top Gear: Nissan GT-R lap time...oh shit.

There was a thread about how some people refuse to believe that the GT-R is a legitimate supercar. I think this will only add to the fervor that this car has created......

enjoy!

Tied with the Maserati MC12. The Zonda F ran 1:18.4.

That's honestly what I expected. I was talking to a friend and said that I thought it would come in fourth after the Ascari, CCX, and Zonda F, and it looks like it's done exactly that (well, tied at least).

Ridiculously impressive. I still have trouble calling it a super car though. A super car to me needs the look of a super car, but maybe that makes this even more of a super car? Either way, it's certainly amazing. Can't wait for the V-Spec.

Top Five Top Gear Laps
1:17.3 – Ascari A10
1:17.6 – Koenigsegg CCX (with "Top Gear Spoiler")
1:18.4 – Pagani Zonda F
1:18.9 – Maserati MC12
1:19.0 – Ferrari Enzo

If time is legit, it beat the Enzo! The GT-R is a bargain.
