Turbos

Explain how the S3 is crap to drive?

They aren't exactly renown for being by the seat of your pants exciting or having good steering.

I've flushed fish down the toilet that where more alive than some of the steering systems I've found in Gerrman cars

I want some of whatever smokey is smoking lol.
 
Got to disagree there mark. 996s (particularly pre facelifts) do seem to look a little bit dated. No more/less than the NSX I'd say.

You have got to be joking? Here is a 2001/2 example of each:

The NSX looks like... some cheap big Jap coupe. The 996 looks like... a supercar.
 
To be fair that is a turbo, but any 996 still just looks a classic, to me anyway.
 
Yet it's an all aluminium monocoque. Depends what you're after. Unfortunatlet after cracking the chassis and engine they didn't get the interior right.

This is all getting a bit pathetic to discredit one guy.
 
Well obviously, but wid so likkle torque, i shouldn't be as fast as cars wid more torques?

So if a Turbo Deisel revved 2k more than standard, according to mike it would be rapid.

So BHP and power to weight have nothing to with it then? Okie doke great.

better tell Ariel, that there Atom is slow cus it doesn't have much torque, cus it uses a crappy Honda engine.:D

Seriously, get a clue - I've even tried explaining it to you already.

HP = Torque * RPM / 5252.

Therefore you cannot have HP without Torque or RPM. If a Turbo Diesel revved to 8200 RPM (that is around 3k RPM more than a normal revs, btw) and could make the same torque at that RPM then it would **** all over your Honda. But RPM isn't a strong point of Diesels, which is why you rarely see super fast ones.

0 Torque * 8200 RPM / 5252 = 0 HP

All im saying is thats the best of the bunch but even a base model with a clear lens kit still looks well, in and out, im one of those that thought the 996 had a good interior, 993's they had a scattered mess, but i think a 996 still looks good inside now.

Please stop posting complete sense, my head might explode.

The Porsche has many great points, but one thing i'd never describe its looks are akin to supercar. For one reason alone. There to common, for that supercar look you need that exclusivity.

I dont think exclusivity has anything to do with looks at all, really.

Are you really saying that if Pagani had a bumper year and sold 100,000 Zonda's it would no longer look like a supercar?

Nah the NSX is rubbish like Fox said, everyone from Gordan Murray to Senna is full of crap.

Whats the 911 in bad boys? I wouldn't mind that one, at a push lol.
