no, what matters is real world comparisons.

would love to see both cars lap times around the nurburgring. the Z would edge it out because it is a very fast track but I think you guys would be surprised. the Z would beat the gen coupe 3.8 track by no more then 10 seconds..

Winning is winning. No matter by .1 seconds or 10 seconds.

And besides, 10 seconds on track is large number.

10 seconds on an 11 mile track for a car that cost almost 10k more, has 20 more HP, is 250lbs lighter and is competing against a lowly Hyundai is a little sad if you ask me. sounds to me like the little Hyundai is much closer then it should be for its price point.

10 seconds on the Nurburgring is the different between a Ferrari Enzo - 7.25 and a Porsche 997 Turbo - 7.35 (the car you imaginary have).

So proves a point that even on a 11 milles Nurburging, 10 seconds is still a lot.
