Maybe I sounded stupid

But I am truly disappointed that the German car makers does not do more development that focuses on pure performance. Maybe I expect too much from them.
I bow in the dust for Nissans work with the GT-R, a comfortable heavy grand tourer that goes as fast as a Carrera GT on the Nurburgring!
It is a new benchmark and I am surprised Nissan was the one doing it.
Thats great BRAND BUILDING work! And Nissan needs it more than both BMW and Porsche.
It will surely make the competition work hard and I guess it will affect the new M3 CSL and how it performs. So Nissan did us all a favour...?

By the way I am a big fan of both Nissan, Mazda and Toyotas work with Le Mans cars, The GT-one is/was great and the Nissan 390 too, when I was at Le Mans in 1995 the Mazda with the wankel engine had far the best sound of all the cars
