Edmunds - Why don't they like it?

Edmunds writers couldn't drive there way out of a wet paper bag. Honestly, they have the slowest track times compared to every single magazine and internet source on the market.

Cool

Edmunds writers couldn't drive there way out of a wet paper bag.
Honestly, they have the slowest track times compared to every single magazine and internet source on the market. There sports car reviews are 90% shoddy and shady. Always leaning toward domestic brands which shows bias.
Not only that but edmunds intial tests of the Z showed
0-60 in. 4.8
1/4mi in 13.3
Lat acc. .98g

Since its 1st review there numbers hav gone downhill and so has the reviews.
They initially drove and beat the 135I with the Z.
Now the are recanting and claimin the 135I is a better car?
Do I smell corporate payoff?
Nissan always seems to get an iffy review from many magazines while still slaughtering the competition.
I see some changes in the writings but the majority still shows bias in its reviews.
I guess its hard for the west to face that the far east exceeded us and are almost caught up with german marks.
Slightly off topic...
Lol... may I add. Imho the BMW is being overshadowed by AUDI.

10,000 sold first year. It's an exculisve already, and I could not be happier. Anyone can own a Camaro, or a Mustang, but it takes style to own a "Z". A question to ask yourself, how many "Z" owners live in a trailer? None, that's where broken Fords and Chevy's die.
