2010 Nissan GT-R



How fast is fast? The 2010 GT-R can rocket from rest to 60 mph in a tick over three seconds. Its electronically limited top speed is 193 mph. Driven by former Formula 1 racer Toshio Suzuki, it recently clocked a lap of Germany’s famed 13-mile, 176-turn Nurburgring race/test track in a stunning 7 minutes, 26.7 seconds—5.3 seconds faster than the best its target Porsche 911 GT2 has managed. Only two reasonably attainable production cars have bettered that: a 638-hp 2009 Corvette ZR1 at a slightly faster 7:26.4, and a 600-hp 2009 Dodge Viper SRT-10 ACR at 7:22.1.
