They ran an 8:44 on the nurburgring, which is honestly better than I thought it would be.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ListofNrburgringNordschleifelaptimes

Compare it to other times though. A cobalt ss/tc beats it by over 20 seconds lol.

edit:

Didn't see they had put on sticky bridgestones to do that lap lol. So realistically on stock tires its not even going to be in the 8 minute range.


So, some no named guy ran a lap around germany, and got a time in a brz?
You think comparing it to Horst von Saurma, someone who runs that track often, someone who's name is next to most of the cars/times on the wiki, an ex-race car driver, is proving a point?

That proves as much a point as this; at willow springs
Subaru BRZ 1:30.32
Chevrolet Corvette C5 Z06 1:30.35
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 1:30.35
Porsche 911 Turbo 1:30.69
Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X MR 1:31.60
Subaru Impreza WRX STI 1:34.10
Honda S2000 Type S 1:35.67

pro vs amature drivers, the numbers don't line up because people of far different skill levels drove the car.
I'm sure even you could see this.

Your car sounds awful.....

The people doing that test were professionals. There are other nurburgring lap times around, that was the fastest one.

An american muscle car with almost full exhaust work sounds horrible? Now it makes sense why youre getting a brz, because youre a fucking imbecile.

Have fun with the brz if you get it, I bet slow performance and high gas mileage really makes your junk wiggle.
