0-80 kph as 0-50 mph is one of the very few mph/kph substitutes allowed. But what is the issue date of Autocar magazine where this was published?

fakekillerfour 6y ago
0-80 kph = 0-50 mph: 2.6

Heres the order they came in.
1 Ferrari 458 Speciale 2 Ariel Atom 3.5R 3 Porsche 991.1 911 GT3 4 Porsche 987 Cayman S 5 McLaren 650S 6 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray Z51 7 Renault Megane RS 275 Trophy 8 Bmw I8 9 Vauxhall VXR8 GTS 10 Jaguar F-Type R COupe 11 Alfa Romeo 4CStill though, 2 BDCC, Both AC and MT, Yet you have to opposite conclusions from 1 car, The 4C, Ones all the way at the top, And ones all the wayat the bottom, I find that facinating.
Still, Just looking at that list, Id have to say the BDCC car top 5 would be.. The Megane, Atom, Stingray, Cayman, GT3.

For me F-type R should be at 7th positon, but i dont know how it would compare with M4.
Jag has that charisma, and it is more of a fun car than clinical drivers car with subtele handlig, but that does not make it bad car for right driver. However its a bad car for bad driver.
Same with cars like GT-R, Megane - those are good car for those that arent driving masters, they will be fast and still it will be fun for them.

Arent all Speciale's special?
@P
I dont mind Steve Suitcliff, By im no big fan of AutoCar as a whole, Espescially when it comes to any car thats not British, DOnt like Johnny Liebermann from MotorTrend either, But for different reasons.
Im also not saying a Megane is better then an F-Type, But simply a better Drivers car, We all have different opinions on what a Real Drivers car is though, SO somebodys gotta complain.
@Luque
I agree, Im sick of this hyped up press car bullshite, and not advertised power figures, Just give them the car and the keys with no bs, And if the car has 610Bhp, THATS what it should have.


Piorun 7y ago
@BR2
I never ranked AutoCar too high, those journalists aren't top level. There is many bullshit reviews from AutoCar, that could be done better just by some car enthusiast. They are not on Chris HArris level. For example Steve Sutcliffe isnt bad driver, but, he is just so flat in looking on cars. Hes "test" GT-R vs M5 is just bullshit. And just look at reviews of this Matt Saunders, its just bad:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCq39DRvNKE
But, even with this, i can agree, that 4C is very specific car, and very first attemp from Alfa Romeo to produce mid engined mini-supercar. Cayman is build for 20 years, with over 50 Porsche expirience. 4C will be btter in future but now, i just looking like great concept not like great car but maybe its fault of particular car.
I do nor trust in MotorTrend as much too.
But oever all i can agree for the top6, cayman, GT3, 650S, Atom, Stingray its just too much of the competition, they are the bests from the bests, so in this car range 7th place may be great award for that car. but i doubt that Megane/I8 is better than JAg R Type, ok, the car is hard to master, but that doesnt mean that its bad. Ok just try to master it, and do not complain that its too hard, maybe You are bad driver instead car is bad.
Same to 4C - it might be great but in the right road with right driver.

The brakes are amazing:
100km/h to 0 in 29,8m
200km/h to 0 in 113,2m .... Mclaren anounces that P1 does 200 to 0 in 116m

Its not about straight line speeds.
458 Speciale just won Autocar 2014 Best Driver's car award.
Beating 991 GT3, which is the best Porsche, which is the best 911, and 911 is multi MotorTrend Drivers cars award winner... so, Ferrari is realy much better.
