Rayman Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Pretty much most of the hot hatches out there are of similar performance to the NA, although the NA shud eventually out perform the hatches towards the top end being 3L/6cyl. Id be more wearey of BMW's they are always after dualing with the supra! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 so how many of the BMWs can we push off then, come on guys i thought id get some of you NA guys bragging it up and taking some glory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitz supra Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I could take my boss in his Audi A6 Quattro 2.7tt in my NA quite easily which used to REALLY p him off !! Although he used to start catching me up when into 3 figures Audi TT easy to take too, Manual NA seems to be quicker than Auto although not on paper, You just need to know how to drive one keep it between the "magic" 5500 and 6200rpm and it goes, (helps if its a manual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep and the A6 is nearly 2 ton Not a great car when your really look at them though. And boy do they have their problems and Mantainance cost!! Give me Jap anyday Mercs not much better either the brother inlaw worked at a Merc dealership and said it was a real eye opener, really poor product Never been a lover of German motors always found them to be clunky "but functional" vehicles Each to their own though... I Just think the Japs build reliability just as good as the Germans which is why the Jap stuff has been taking the top 4 places for the last few years in reilability stakes, All your "prestige" badges are way down the list ... suprisingly!!

blitz supra Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 The new one looks miles better doesnt it, not half as hardresser with its wider arches! Don't get me wrong the old TT is a very pretty car, Just a shame its a Golf at the end of the day.. But don't you think Audis are just boring? They all look the same just in different sizes, and what is it with that new stupid big grille, Saying that i have my Track day on 9th Dec and one of the cars is the V8 RS4 A4, Will be interesting..everyone says they are quick It should be fast.. A V8 in something the size on a Mondeo.. So i'll give it a good caning... verdict to follow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hmmm, I don't know about the Audi's being boring, my boss's RS6 is somewhat entertaining, and is actually a pleasant drive if not rapid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungy Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 I sold my R1 the other day and i'm not going to say I beat it but led the guy back to the motorway to see him on his way and had the red mist come down. Give him a run for his money and sure he had to give it more than he thought. Sad to see it go but a worthy send off. He could have been really decent and popped a victory wheelie but he didn't.
