Europeans are not dominating the supercar scene anymore. Performance wise Chevrolet and Nissan are right next to the Porsche and Ferrari. Surely they have a long way to go when talking about the prestige and brand value.

I find that the numbers displayed here are “slightly off”; especially the GT-R’s at 3.2; its more like 3.5. The margins are minimal, but nonetheless, imortant. BTW, the ZR1 is spakin’ culos everywhere it goes!
