HSV to beat GTR and NSX @ Nurburgerring
http://www.pressportal.com.au/news/448/ARTICLE/2440/2008-06-20.html

New HSV at AU$150,000 has a whopping 375kW (500HP) and 640Nm.

With this amount of power from the rear wheels there is no doubt it will beat the GTR and NSX. I think we need an upgrade from the GTR?

Hence Spec-V in the works.

Get a spec V, and with the green that you save over buying that ugly HSV...mod the GTR. Not to mention that IMO the HSV has no chance against the base GTR on the ring. You're kidding, right?

there is no chance that the hsv will come close to a gt-r, it's a cool car in it's own right, but it's nowhere near gt-r territory

thanks for posting up the info, it's cool to read about

In my post I really wasn't trying to hate...I mean, that car is nice and all; I just wouldn't call it a die hard track day car. IMO it's a bit spendy for what it is...
