Ich verstehe Deutsch! Nice find... I read this article on the plane home from my last trip. One of the joys of Lufthansa is the Auto Motor und Sport on the plane.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to hesperus again.

Great video, saw it on TV last weekend. It's weird that the SLR only did 324 kph, though it should do 334 kph.

Ja natürlich, ist ja klar (makes no sense to me, but that doesn't matter)

HAHAHAHAAa!!!

I love the snail that's crawling on the road just after they show the vette. Subliminal messages anyone? (not that i think the vette is slow, but maybe their opinions are showing through)

2 other notables...

-The 997TT is slower to 200kph but faster to 300kph vs the vette according to this test

-The vette shown is an automatic and does not have the hood scoop that most Z06s have. Is there a different version over-seas or did they test a non Z06 C6?
