JAGUAR F-TYPE R COUPE
PRICE: £85,000
0-62MPH: 4.0 secs
TOP SPEED: 186mph
CO2 G/KM: 255g/km
THE VERDICT:
The home team’s offering is a little cheaper and almost matches the 911 GTS stride-for-stride in terms of performance, but it’s more lairy both to drive and to look at.
NISSAN GT-R
PRICE: £78,020
0-62MPH: 2.9 secs
TOP SPEED: 196mph
CO2 G/KM: 275g/km
THE VERDICT:
Badge snobs won’t give it a second’s thought but the GT-R is blisteringly fast and outrageously capable – and will save you more than £10,000.
MERCEDES-AMG GT
PRICE: £97,195
0-62MPH: 4.0 secs
TOP SPEED: 189mph
CO2 G/KM: 216g/km
THE VERDICT:
It’s brand new and aimed directly at the 911 – coincidentally matching the GTS’s performance exactly – but is more expensive to boot.
