Top speed is the quickest because it's not limited. Most powerful (hp wise) means nothing.

The 4.0TT engine is constantly "officially" rated lower than it actually dynos. So are BMWs, etc. It means nothing. 1/4 mile ET and trap speed is the only thing that matters to measure power.

Case in point, the M6 GC only has 560hp but has a higher trap speed than this 700+hp sedan.

But again, for that price range? Wow! Impressive.

    - True. I don't think you can compare the two cars though. But make sure you don't do a highway - Carmine_GT500 2014-08-14 21:05:20 (108 views)
