Apparently, Top Gear pitted these two cars one against each other in Japan...

Take a look at scans of this...

'Strange as it sounds for a four-wheel drive Audi, the R8 really plugs you into the road, and feeds back what it finds through the wheel. The R8 is fantastic in a way that will appeal to true car enthusiasts: lithe, agile, beautifully engineered. It's even got soul, a remarkable achievement for an Audi.'



Supercar of the Year: Nissan GT-R

'The GT-R is monstrously good. It locks on like a missile. Seriously, this thing hooks up and accelerates like a Bugatti Veyron. Its body control is breathtaking, too - you just know that this car has been meticulously engineered down to the last tiny grommet. I seriously doubt that there is a car on the planet that can corner faster or more aggressively than this.'
