Car & Driver GTR Road Test

Wow, Car and Driver just tested the new GTR and the results stand up to the hype.

Here’s what the ‘at a glance’ numbers look like:

  • Horsepower: 480 bhp @ 6400RPM
  • Torque: 430 ft/lbs @ 7000RPM (!!!)
  • 0-60: 3.3 seconds
  • 1/4 Mile: 11.5 @ 124MPH
  • Top Speed: 191MPH
  • Lateral Gs: .99
  • 70-0 Braking: 145ft

Here’s what gets me, and makes this vehicle so open to modifications – All the was achieved @ 10.7PSI. With an Intake, Downpipe Back Exhaust, some Fuel and a Reflash – is a mid 10-second pass plausible? With more then just basic Bolt Ons are we going to have a handful of 9 Second GTRs running around.
