XKR-S vs. GT-R?

Nissan GT-R vs. Jaguar XKR-S on Top Gear Set

You better believe it! I, on the other hand, don't know how the Jag will keep up with the Nissan given it's acceleration time and grip advantage, but it should be something exciting to look forward to. Also, Mr. Bean, Johnny English, and McLaren enthusiast Rowan Atkinson will be the Star in the Reasonably Priced Car. Not to mention the team try to make train travel better by hitching carriages on the backs of cars. The new episode airs this Sunday at 8 PM on BBC HD and BBC 2.

P.S: Rumors have been running around forums and wiki sites that Mr. Big Brit, Simon Cowell, will be returning to Top Gear. Legend has it that he's posted one the fastest laps in both the Liana and the Lacetti. So expect him reaching the top in the Cee Apostrophe D, dethroning the Liverpool comedian, John Bishop. Also, it's official: Jeremy Clarkson will be driving the Jaguar XKR-S and the Nissan GT-R, but you can still vote and tell everyone who you want to be reviewing the cars.

Eat My Grille, Godzilla!

2011 Hennessey Cadillac Escalade

Hennessey has always been known for producing the most outrageous cars. For example, they've made about a dozen Twin-Turbocharged Dodge Vipers, each having over 1,000 horsepower and each perfecting about 230 MPH. They've even done work with Ford GTs, Chevy Camaros, Nissan GT-Rs, and Cadillac CTS-Vs. Well, Hennessey recently got the crazy idea of souping up a Cadillac Escalade. They took the standard 5.3-liter 403 horsepower V8 engine, put in two massive turbochargers in it, some high flow cylinder heads, and a Hennessey HPE1000 camshaft. The output: 1000 horsepower and a 0 to 60 time of, get this, 3.3 seconds! That means that this SUV has enough power and torque to outrun a Nissan GT-R! Hennessey themselves proved this with a one-on-one drag race against Godzilla, with the result of Godzilla having his tail tied at the finish. Wow! What will Hennessey think of next? Check out the video below to see Godzilla get smoked by a Caddy.

Godzilla takes on the Ring

2012 Nissan GT-R on the Nürburgring

Godzilla strikes again! This time, he headed for Green hell to see if he could perfect his old lap time, and he did, by a measly 2 seconds! With a new time of 7:24.22, the 2012 Nissan GT-R is faster round the 'Ring than the Porsche 911 Turbo, the Enzo Ferrari, the Porsche Carrera GT, the Pagani Zonda F Clubsport, and, get this, the Maserati MC12! It seems the extra power and less weight really paid off. Let's not forget that this car leaps from 0 to 60 in an astonishing 2.9 seconds! That's quicker than a McLaren F1. This car has really come a long way. Now it just needs to be faster so it can take its rightful place as Tokyo King of Speed. Take a look below to see Godzilla raging around the 'Ring.
