I totally agree about the tire types but unfortunately I have no choice unless I change all four. Even if I choose Bridgestone I will not get the RE050 they will sell me the RE050A which have more grip and their performance is very similar to the PS2.

I also agree with you on acceleration times and all the variables that affect it, but I still insist that US magazines clock quicker times for some reason. If you check out the official VW US site for the R32 the quote 6.5 secs while motor trend quote 5.8 secs and thats a big difference.

The same for the GTI 6.3 secs in R&T http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/downloa..._pockets_dp.pdf

On Motor Trend the Cayman S was quicker than the Z4M

And many others..

And many others..

 

We all know the official 0-100 times of the Z4M and Cayman S of 5.0 and 5.4 secs respectively but the following article gives similar times

Of course rare man..especially in Abu Dhabi..when people ask me what I'm driving and I say an S2000 they don't have a clue what the car is..they've never seen it before..and when they see it they think it looks like a Z4!!!!
