Nissan GT-R beats Corvette Z06, Viper ACR and Porsche GT-2 in Car and Driver
The Nissan GT-R was found to be the best track car out of this bunch, and that is no surprise. The M3 wasn't even included because it is not a track car, it is the ultimate poseur car. The measure of a truly great car is one that is better than cars that cost more. The M3 is not that, since no one would take a M3 over a 911. Trust me, I have the 911. Also, the GT-R destroys the M3 at the same price, so the M3 is so damn overrated. If you have a M3, you did not get a track car. Stop thinking you are hardcore because you aren't. You only got it to try to impress non automotive folk.
Lexus Taste of Luxury - IS-F
Went to the Lexus Taste of Luxury event a few weeks ago at California Speedway. The IS, one of my favorite cars, was awesome. Got to drive it around a mini autocross circuit, and I loved it. As many of you know, I was going to get one since the E90 sedan (current BMW 3 series sedan) is just flat out hideous. Well the 335 coupe turned out to be lovely, so I knew I would get the hardtop vert. Anyways, I drove the IS-F around the track and the handling was awesome. The car is one of the fastest cars I've ever driving, and the handling was wonderful. The interior is beautiful as well, as it should since it is a Lexus. Great car for 60k.
