It's nice to see a $150K car give a $2mil car a run for it's money!

Porsche driver in your video either asleep, morbidly obese, or apprehensive with accelerator!

OMG are you kidding me!? Nobody gives a **** about 0-60mph. The Veyron straight raped the TTS. Look at the trap speeds. And the time to 160mph.

This really has nothing to do w the origonal video as the truth is the TTS should have had a better driver as shown by the slow times and mph. The McLaren is just staright fast....no where near as fast as the Bug...ever.

Ohhh come on Sgt all the fun happen from 0mph to 140mph that's why we have a 997 Turbo.

How many times did you actually go over 180mph?

Very rare....however I do spend a fair amount of time w another car next to me ready to see who hits 160 first. The fact is that the TTS is SUPER "fast" but a trap speed of under 130mph it is absolutely no match for a car trapping 145mph. It just irkes me when people get all huffy and puffy about the Porsche this and TTS that and start comparing them to cars they really have no chance against. Who gives a ****...even on this board under 1% of us will ever own a bone stock 145mph fully stock street car so why bring it up and even further why post Road & Track videos that only show a complete raping. I drive a 138ish mph car and when I get pulled by a car or ten I dont make excuses about who has more money in the build or car I just say good run and move on to mod another day.

Lookout! We are in the GT-R forums!
That is a lame *** excuse.
The McLaren is just a faster car, period.
After driving one in Vegas on course, the Mc Laren flat out moves...period.
