That's truly amazing and I think magazines should always test these cars to 300 km/h.



i agree! that separates the wheat from the chaff!


Well, it does separate the quick cars from the fast cars. I can understand why that test would be important for someone in Germany (wish we had autobahns too )

But, there are many quick cars that are great fun in the mountains or on a track (where going 300kph is not even possible) - I wouldn't call them the "chaff"



Well, they do look like chaff coming off a jet fighter when the faster car leaves them in the dust on the Autobahn .


True, but a Benz 600 Twin Turbo will do that too and there's no great pleasure in driving one of those



BTW: The Mercedes S65 (V12 Bi-Turbo with 612hp) is just 2 seconds slower than the 997TT (0-250kph)
