Nissan GT-R Documentary


For those with roughly 3/4 of an hour to spare, you might be interested to check out this comprehensive video documentary from the National Geographic on the new Nissan GT-R.


The doco covers the illustrious history, the design process and almost every facet of the latest Godzilla's development from the moment Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn gave the green-light to build the Porsche 911 Turbo killer to its famous record-breaking Nurburgring lap and its official unveiling.

The Stig takes the Nissan GT-R around Top Gear test track

July 22nd 2008 22:25
The Stig drives Nissan GT-R


Sure, the Nissan GT-R's Nurburgring lap-time is impressive, but funnily enough, the lap time that everyone's been waiting for is how fast the Godzilla can lap around the Top Gear test track with 'tame racing driver', the Stig, behind the wheel.

Well, the wait is over. Finally.





A Nissan GT-R was apparently flown from Japan to the UK for the sole purpose of giving the Stig a chance to lap it around the Top Gear test track and the time does not disappoint. But does it embarrass the likes of Porsche's 911 Turbo yet again? What about exotics such as Ferrari and Lamborghini?

Find out by watching the 10-minute video clip.

Ferrari 430 Scuderia Michael Schumacher


One of the great perks of being a 'VIP' of a particular product or brand means special invites/offers, freebies and what not. When it comes to cars, you might get the odd free floor mats, key chain and umbrella thrown in with your purchase of a Toyota Camry but when you are a VIP of supercar maker Ferrari, you get invited for a spin around the Fiorano racetrack in a 430 Scuderia with no other than seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher behind the driver's seat
