Bleh, its stupid as expected from motortrend.
You are comparing a car that cost $120k to a $82k... I mean why not compare a GT3 to the R8. Maybe even the Turbo, but that costs over 120k msrp. And the Auto Turbo is faster then the standard 6 speed Turbo.

Its a review based on Dynamics and probably nothing more (I have not read the article yet, just the title). The Porsche's handling was the benchmark for the R8's .
