This time Chris loves Audi more than Porsche and 750 hp strong tuned GT-R...

Now that was a great video. The S-Tronic really has brought the R8 back to life.

the sound of the r8 v10 is pure sex, wow....

notwithstanding his disclaimer there was no relevance with the modded Nissan. nor was there any relevance with the old turbo s. it was more of a random pairing with cars he personally fancied or were available. he should have included the new c4s with chrono package.

I believe it was a "for this amount of money, you could have this, this or this" kinda thing. The Nissan, while definitely not as refined, is still a blast to drive. I can only imagine how great it is with the added power and the more compliant suspension. I've ridden in and driven several GTR's of various years and while they have been getting better, the ride can still be quite punishing. It must be said that in return you feel as though you have way more grip than you could ever be brave enough to use.
