Auto Express drives the Spec-V .. Is it really that good?

Auto Express recently got behind the wheel of the ultimate Nissan GTR, the Spec-V. While some of us still lust over the standard GTR, the Spec-V has raised the bar by not just a notch, but by unimaginable levels. 0-100km/h in 3.2-seconds puts the car comfortably into hypercar territory (think Mclaren F1). But just like any other hypercar, it doesn’t only have to be able to carry insane speed, it needs to be able to handle really well. The Spec-V is able to do everything a hypercar is able to, it probably just lacks the appeal and visual drama of one. Here’s what Auto Express has to say about it.

h4dRi: i believe hypercar is a step-up from supercar..the cars like McLaren F1, Enzo, Veyron, Reventon can be considered as hypercar...

once i set my mind that 6000cc and above is a supercar..lower than that is just sports car..but then i considered viper (8000cc) as supercar only..quite confusing..

hypercar is supercar at higher level...and price..

Merc SLR is a hypercar as i know...

well,actually ,a car can lap the german legendary track,NURBURGRING aka GREEN HELL under 8 minutes lap time can be called supercar..sprint 0-60mph under 5seconds..etc ...so..its not easy to claim the title super car..i think this is the spec V lap nurburgring 7minutes26seconds..almost as fast as the CORVETTE C6 ZR1 around the green hell..
