Wow! Those figures pretty much kick anything other than the $1.8 million dollar Bugatti out of the water! Did it mention whether that was done with a manual or a Tip?

Thanks for taking the time to type those figures out!

manual tranny and with sport chrono ....if you go to Autocar.co.uk and log onto the forums you can read under the 'your cars' section a post entitled 997 turbo quick,and in the 'in the mag' section a post under the o-100-0 ..some posts from one of the testers..especially interesting is his post to me about turbo lag in the your cars section..and how fast the turbo really is.

Damn. Smokin'.

That Focus WRC only weighs 2700 lbs with over 400 lbs of torque. Something to keep in mind.

Something wrong with the M6 and Z06 0-60 #s? The cars are no doubt faster than that...

No mistakes,all cars tested under the same conditions and same driver.I have an m6 and those figures seem about right,but the magic in the m6 happens above 100mph..then it would match the gallardo at least.
