Default Does Porsche need to lie to promote a car?

I can't understand this marketing BS



Porsche says the new GT2 laps the Nurburgring Nordschleife in 7:32. Impressive time, but let's wait until SA tests it.

Now, let's talk about some of its rivals' times....

Ferrari F430:

Porsche says:

7:55

Sport Auto:

7:55

Gallardo SE:

Porsche:

7:57 WTF?

SA hasn't tested the SE, but they achieved a lap time of 7:52 with the old 493 hp Gallardo

Ferari 599 GTB:

Porsche:

7:59 Is this a joke???

SA:

7:47

Dodge Viper SRT-10:

(Funnily, they compare its new top of the range machine against the convertible Viper instead of the Corvette Z06 or the Viper Coupé)

Porsche:

8:13

SA:

8:13

MB SL65 AMG:

(I wonder why Porsche considers the SL65 a rival to its GT2. Anyway, the SL55 AMG its way faster than the SL65 around a track, something Porsche apparently doesn't know, or doesn't want know.)

Porsche:

8:14

SA:

8:14


C'mon Porsche, you don't need to use these tricks, do you?
