damn.. just did the numbers... 8:1 weight to power ratio STOCK (advertised)...
I'm @ 8.55:1 (estimated)... I'm thinking I know better than to mess with one. And that's just based on numbers.
If I see a stock or modded one, I'll give it the same respect I give M5's, Turbo Porshes, etc.... lol
M3: 8.82:1
M5: 8.02:1
Porsche 911 Turbo: 7.29:1
Stock 06 STI: 11.16:1
They say.. know your opponent...
I say...
Know the numbers... make a judgement call. :P
I know numbers aren't everything, but it's a pretty good place to start.

When I saw the title to this thread, I wondered if they called the new GT-R an R35, since the successor to the R34 actually was the (in the US) Infinity G35. It turns out the Infinity is a V35 (and now they're up to V36) and the GT-R IS an R35.... weird.

I don't think most of us are confused with the R35. The G35 is a SKYLINE GT, not a GT-R nor a R35.
And the
C63 AMG($53k) sleeper is
7.9:1 lb:hp

It does look much better in person. I remember my cousin's only complaint is that it doesn't feel like a supercar for its speed and it didn't come with painted front lip(white car, black lip) when he picked his a few months ago in HK.

The sites I posted have a lot of good basic info on all the cars.
