KF:
I was told by a reliable source that the MP4 can fly... Sorry guys, but sub 7 minutes on the Nordschleife is just a dream for stock cars and a time under 9 sec for a 600hp rear wheel drive car with street legal tires is not possible.
Please consider that the official (!) spec is 8.9s for 0-200kph. That is: they sell their cars with this promise - you might assume that this is correct if they don't want to run into legal disputes
P.S.: My current bet for the SportAuto NBR lap time is around 7.10
I prefer 7mins flat (I am on the list for 1 this year)
If i ever got over the lack of lsd that is..
I am due for a test drive on the top gear track next month. I think I'll go with my current car to see back to back if it makes me excited!
