See what coming?

And what is "Z Version S", "Z 35th" and "roadster" for cars? that z is 350Z?

I saw the S2000 coming in first I meant.

Roadster is the MX-5/Miata I believe.

Hey look that "heavy bastard" the corvette, got beat out by that "featherweight" Z.

Exactly how it should be :roll:

Did ya think about that?

Well considering it was a stock Vette coupe with broken electronics and driven in a completely amatuerish way - the driver tried to throw the tail out every corner - pitted against the specialized handling versions of all the other cars, the outcome is not that surprising - lets try that same comparison again with the stock bottom of the range versions of the other cars and an actually correctly functioning Corvette.

Nice to know I'm not the only one who was digusted with the way they treated that 'test'.

Didnīt know the S2000 could outhandle Impreza's and Boxsters on winding roads! Quite impressive! Even the Elise is beaten!
