The folks over at AutoCar decided to put the new 2009 Ford Focus RS against the Nissan GT-R. Now while we really love the 2009 Focus RS, we really don’t think it deserves to be in the same video as Godzilla. Nonetheless, it’s an interesting approach.

Refresher:

2009 Ford Focus RS: Power comes from a 2.5L 5-cylinder Duratec engine with a large Borg Warner K16 turbocharger. That makes a total of 300-hp and a peak torque of 324 lb-ft allowing for a 0 to 62 mph run in 5.9 seconds with a top speed of 163 mph.

Nissan GT-R: Powered by a 3.8 L twin-turbocharged DOHC V6 engine that produces 473 horsepower with a peak torque of 430 lb-ft. 0 to 62 mph comes in at 3.5 seconds with a top speed is limited at 193mph
