wow, how impressive is that Type 25?

All that performance, for so little money, and it still looks like a standard STI, even down to the top mount.

Amazing that they've managed to extract so much extra performance from the standard package - they've made it the ultimate scooby, but accessible for everyman..............awesome.

when I said "everyman", I wasn't referring to financial accessibility, more to how the performance is accessible.

This is like deja vu........you've posted exactly the same thing twice on two different sites Rob.....I know Future probably pay you by the word but come on :lol:

I haven't seen the show yet so I'll reserve judgement on the car until later.

Interesting test - didn't really focus too much on the car, more about how it compared to cars 2 or 3 times the price, ie the 911GT3 and the F430.

Still - it was good to see a bit of a specialist car featured on TV even if Plato did let it bog down off the line in the 0-60 test :roll:

Well I had exactly the same comments made about what I said on both sites......and yes, it was easier to cut and paste from one site to the other :wink: :lol:
