@@curlyefrain9879 because those two are thoroughbred track machines you muppet. They have no luxuries, they aren't comfortable, they are extremely light! The slr is a grand tourer, it has a heavy automatic gearbox, it is comfortable and is meant for long distance trips! Curb your knowledge!
That's a pretty awesome test. I was kinda pulling for the LP560-4, but that SLR is a rocket. I don't know if that Gran Turismo should've been there though, beautiful car in every way, but simply out powered and over weight.
It'd have to be the SLR or the GranTurismo for me, the McMerc is just insanely quick but still refined and luxurious and the Maseratti is simply stunning!!
***** why is he referring to another race on this video description ? He didn't mention that he is referring to another race... Its only me who corrected him... No one else knew he was referring to another race except for you... I wonder why... Maybe you're the only genius here...
Fair race, the expensive one won. I would take the f430 or the Granturismo, because ferrari is loud, however, Granturismo is great for a powerful day-to-day car
Funny how these car were considered fast back in 2009 but are slow by today's standards. Kind of sucks they didn't show the ETs. But here uit is from the article. Maserati GranTurismo - 13.6@104.6mph... an EVO would out run that, LOL 4.2L V8 R8 audi - 13.1@108.9mph ....same ET as the WRX STI motor trend ran in a previous the greatest drag race. Ferrari F430 - 12.3@120.7mph....only 0.1 second quicker than the $47k 1LE SS camaro , .30 slower than the GT350R Gallardo LP560-4 - 11.9@120.5mph ... .4 seconds slower than 911 S $450k SLR - 11.8@126mph ......1.2 seconds slower than the Audi R8 plus.
They are not slow by any means, even by today's Standards, quarter mile times and 0-60 times never tell the whole story, it's the experience and sense of speed a car can offer! You sound like a 12 year old who just goes by the numbers!
@@superchargedv8146 LMAO, Yes they where slow... especially for the price.... Overrated mainly, except for, "maybe" the SLR. FYI, as for the kid comment... You ARE speaking for yourself.

DeAndre Murphy I have some more for you: Lamborghini Aventador SV, Transtar Racing Dagger GT, Jaguar C-X75, GTA Spano, Zenvo St1, Gumpert Apollo Speed, Mosler MT900 GTR, Saleen S7 Twin Turbo
***** All?? The base GT-R doesnt stand a chance. It only reaches 319 km n hour. Allthough the acceleration is pretty astounding. The Porsche 911 turbo s will not hold stand either. If you want competition for the veyron it should be a supercar at least, and not a supersportscar. The Aventador is a good choide i believe . Lykan, yes, i'd love to see what it can do, never seen it in action. Good race, for sure!
Lamborghini uses famous bulls' names for their cars, and almost all famous bull breeds are spanish. since Gallardo is a spanish name, that's the right way to pronounce it
MrWafflez000 Yes but now somewhat affordable to someone not born in a wealthy family or with a trust fund attached. I've been thinking of picking up a Gallardo...
Next race: Lamborghini Aventador vs Nissan GTR, vs Ferrari 458, vs Porsche 911 Turbo S, vs Aston Martin DB9 or 77, vs Corvette ZR1, vs Pagani Zonda... all 2012 or 2013 :) Now this would be a race!!!
I think today we need to race of Lamborghini Huracan,Ferrari 488GTB,McLaren 650s,Audi R8 V10 Plus and Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale with Mercedes SLS AMG
SLR rivals are the 599,Carrera GT,Pagani Zonda,Lamborghini Murcielago and Ferrari Enzo which clearly are in the different league from Gallardo and the F430
This isn't a Benz commercial. this is a demonstration of Mclarens awesome engineering skill! they turned a regular Mercedes (super)car, into an actually fast and epic Supercar . That takes a lot of work, Mercedes aren't known for being fast agile sports cars.
I didn't think the Benzo had that much kick! Good job Mercedes, but I think the bowtie boys have a lil surprise for you. It's called the Corvette ZR-1!
l'm not joking about this l literally thought that was an aventador in this video instead of the Gallardo LP 560! Edit: they look exactly the same in white
I can see why, the facelifted Gallardo aka Gallardo LP560-4 borrowed design cues from the Reventón and everyone knows the Aventador design was based on the Reventón!
I want a second part with the aventador, lexus lfa,mclaren mp4c,ferrari f12 berlinetta,mercedes sls, new audi r8,new viper,nissan gtr,camaro zl1 and a porsche but instead of "Supercar Shootout! - Epic 5-Car Drag Race 2" , "Supercar Shootout! - Epic 10-Car Drag Race"
@galaxieguy65. No durrr. They're in two totally different categories smart one. Cars like Bugatti, Mclaren F1, Koenigsegg, Ultimate Aero, and Gumpert Apollo are Exotic Hypercars. Cars like Lamborghini, Ferrari, Corvette, Porche, and Audi are all just Exotic Supercars
This was from 2009 - things moves fast these days, Only the merc and the Gallardo seams to be able to present a decent case still. But the SLR is also an exotic, so it should keep it´s respect a tidy bit longer than the others, even that it would be smoked by a lot of newer sports cars today.

How about La Ferrari vs Koenegsegg One:1 vs Bugatti Veyron Supersport? That's the race I wanna see.

This is my list:

Mercedes Benz AMG C63 Coupé
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution

Fair
T sure on worlds greatest drag race 4 the Porsche beat the GTR
Andrew Wittmer You're probably right... Jaguar and Porsche might come close, but the other cars are barely even sports cars...
+Andrew Wittmer GTR is nice but the 911 turbo s is faster... not as pretty to look at tho.
+Andrew Wittmer no, look at world's greatest drag race 4. The 911 turbo has a better power to weight ratio and in turn a better 1/4 mile.
That is a bad list this is my list
1. Koenigsegg regera
2. Lamborghini aventador
3. Ferrari laferrari fxxk
4. Mclaren 675 LT
5. Mercedes g class 6x6

The Mercedes McLaren SLR has one of the best names in the automotive world.
Another name I can think of right now ... Brabus S Biturbo,
SLR is too beast. I knew it was gonna win before the race even started
I know Chevrolet isn't foreign but people forget that the zr1 is in the same class as these cars. No to mention it would have won.
