Comparison tests Road & Track 12/2015 - Ford GT vs Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

[Nelson Shirtmobile]

This is probably the most bad-a*s comparo in Road & Track! We have an American production Gorilla-windshielded rear-wheel-drive hypercar that costs $400,000 and sprints to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds, while Italy's got its normal all-drive V12 luxury exotic to launch quicker but do 60 in 2.9. They didn't perform rolling 5-60mph like usual, but these performance results must be so damn good!

The top speed on the GT is lower because of downforce. It's not supposed to be a straight-line car, although it actually did win the quarter-mile (402m) sprint.

ROAD & TRACK'S POWER, WEIGHT AND PRICE REVEALANCE FOR THE FORD MAY SHOCK YOU

0-30 mph
1.4 sec <> 1.3 sec

0-60 mph

4.4 sec <> 5.8 sec

60-100 mph
3.2 sec <> 4.2 sec

A new disease called (Photoshop) is on the loose.

They're from Road & Track in real life.

Sometimes magazine tests aren't published online, or they're hidden under unknown pdfs.

It's not photoshopped. The hell are you talking about! It's in a magazine. Racist German.

@Nelson Shirtmobile where do you get your info from? The other post you placed in the AMS Test 488 GTB thread of the QR test of Ferrari F12 tdf, Lambo Aventador, Ferrari 488 GTB, Dodge Hellcat is also not real and fake. I am been serious and the mods could ban you if you are found again to post fake and unrealistic tests and other info.

Then why does it say "7 speed dual clutch auto" below the Aventador's name? Clearly, R&T can't be that misinformed about something so basic if they were conducting this test. Very shady picture. For sure, taken from a video game.

Guys, he's trolling around GCF with fake posts.

Are you guys acting stupid? For example, Car and Driver had the 1966 Shelby Cobra do 30-60 mph in 1.1 sec (0-30 in 3.2, 0-60 in 4.3) and the 1/4 mile in 12.2 at 118 mph. But if you Google "0-30 mph 3.2 sec Cobra" it doesn't show up. When you type in "30 mph 3.2 sec Cobra," it only shows one result from outside of the real mag. But I have a couple of scans from the real C/D (11/1965).

Told you, not everything has to show up in the mags' official sites or on Google. For another example, AutoZeitung has the Tesla Model S P99D do 0-100 km/h in 3.6s and 0-200 km/h in 15.4s (in their PDF), and no one decided to publish the results for the whole public to see.

It's an auto, but you can use manual mode with dual-clutch, Ferrari fanboy!

Now even if I was the one whom created the "fake" QR test, it's no longer my fault because a car magazine collection site (ZePerfs) just confirmed some of the QR results. For example: http://www.zeperfs.com/en/fiche5997-ferrari-f12-tour-de-france.htm
