Well you have to remember that for years Nissan as all the other Japanese performance brands had to state their official output figures where 280ps though everyone knew this wasn't the case and all of them made much, much more.

Maybe Nissan are still stuck in the habit of under quoting the figures or like you said they always quote at the wheel to get around that silly ruling.

Either way this thing is as much a rival to the M3/C63/RS4 or IS-F as a Ferrari 612 is.

I say more it so we can get back to thinking the M3 is the greatest coupe below £60k.
