Bit of a Biased question really if im posting in this section
but im on the hunt for one at the minute and there is one that im interested in at 470ish hp with near enough the same torque
My question is, are they really that quick as people make out, ive owned some fast japanese cars
ie:
2006 model - Subaru STI running near 375hp with 400 torque (weighed near 1500kg)
2005 model - Mitsi Evo 8 MR - running near 370hp with 380 torque (weighed near 1500kg)
also had a 2000 model CLK55 AMG for a short while but my wallet didnt like that car at all (weighed ALOT)
i know i cant compare the RS in terms of handling or maybe i can? the thing is i dont know. maybe you guys can share your views as you've probably owned other fast cars before owning the RS and how does it compare?
I want to know what these cars are like for spirited driving as thats whats drawing my attention to it. obviously a stock RS isnt that slow but im guessing a 470hp one isnt going to stick around either.
your views/comments/opinions are welcome.:icon_thumright:
Ps:how much does that RS weigh?
