There have been more than a few occasions where the cars supplied by certain manufacturers have performed *substantially* better than on other occasions and for other publications. The best example of this was the "freak" SS Commodore that they had many years back, which bollocked the then R8 Clubby of considerably more power. Simply put, this should not have happened, and even the journos at the time had a few questions about this particular press vehicle. Seems not all manufacturers provide mere "showroom" level cars for road tests :
