2. Ferrari 430 Scuderia - Ooo it was 50:50 between this and the GT3 RS
3. Audi R8 - Spot on
4. Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera - Way off - rated lower than the CLK BS
5. BMW M3 - Yup there she is...
6. Honda Civic Type-R - Dickie loves this car and EVO have a penchant for hot FWD Hondas (note that I assert that the current Type R hatch isn't hot!)
7. Aston Martin DBS - Had a feeling it was going to get a pasting, but not by this much!
8. Nissan 350Z - Spot on
9. Mini Cooper Works - Close - just swap places with the Lotus
10. Lotus 2-Eleven - See above
11. Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series - Man, wayyy off on this one, bodes well for the even better C63 AMG...
12. Vauxhall VXR8 - Yeah just about right eh?
guess its time to throw all the prejudice about AMG cars in the trash

PS
yeah merc..im a huge fan..she is amazing

if the CLK63 BS didnt have this superduper expensive price it would be a perfect 10. Now its just a 9

I wonder what the new Skyline can do in the next coty 2008?

Re: EVO: CotY 2007 *The result**spoiler*

Since track performance is not the sole basis for forming judgement (evident not only by the position of the Superleggera) there are really no big surpises here I think.

Looking forward to this read!

Artist, it has nothing to do with prejudice and everything to do with AMG's historical results from EVO. In the past, AMG cars, barring the CLS 55/63 and SL55 AMG, haven't really sat on the pinnacle with EVO's best.

So, this hyper-expensive CLK 63 BS proves its worth. Bovingdon gave it 4 and a half stars when he drove it in the US and now the whole team gives the CLK 63 BS a big thumbs up. Good for Mercedes AMG! 'Bout bloody time too...

Re: EVO: CotY 2007 *The result**spoiler*

You can see the rating here:

1st Porsche GT3 RS = ?
2nd Ferrari 430 Scuderia = 94.9
3rd Audi R8 = 93.6
4th Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black = 91.4
5th BMW M3 = 90.9
6th Honda Civic Type-R = 89.4

94.9 for Scuderia but was there a big difference in rating between Scuderia and the GT3?

EVO ranked a Mercedes in the top 5? Seriously, post the real results.

Not just any Mercedes though! Let's all hope that the Black Series will set the pace for future models by AMG.
