Evo is one of the best car magazines along with Autocar. Great article and a worthy Car of the Year crown for the GT-R! That makes 3 and counting so far:

Thanks for posting this. It was a great read!
It still amazes me the way the GT-R has made the world take notice. No longer, do the Porsche and Ferrari club guys scoff at the "rice burner" Nissan I think did something very cool with this car and it goes well beyond just making a fast car..They made something special. |

Good read. Also, thanks for making the size perfect so on a big enough widescreen monitor the 2 pages fit perfect side to side like reading a real mag
I for one, am completely baffled at how nuts the Europeans are over the Alfa 8c. It's a pretty good looking car but the front really brings it down. I would rank the Vantage, Granturismo, 560-4, and GTR over that thing for beauty. |

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder my friend! As a European I am baffled by this North American obsession with quarter mile times!
