Yup. Seriously quick. I reckon he would have done about a 6'50 (start to finish) on the Nordschleife.

IF that time is to be believed there is no way that the S2000 video posted a few days earlier got near that time....the S2000 was understeering massively in quite a few corners compared to the M3...

OR if the M3's time is correct how impressive is it to get a transit round in 10 mins like that gal on Top Gear did?

~10mins in a transit is amazing.. considering the average speed has to be around 75mph, the videos don't show just how very steep the gradients actually are..
