lol we couldn't rig it for the r32 to win so we'll bring in a car with no factory warranty and costs more to win :)

no torque steer?

yeah i thought they were talking about a honda for a second there :chuckle (that is totally a joke)

[Kevin@nextmod]

i have driven the speed 3 and i do find some torque steer. But if i were to choose between the R32 and speed. I would go for R32 because of the AWD. No hating here but just that i have always been a fan of the R32. BUT on the other hand. If i were to choose between the speed adn the regular GTI. hands down i'd go for the speed 3.

No torque steer in front wheels??
Are talking about the same car here?
Even in 4th gear I feel the torque steer sometimes.

But we don't quite have the same car. :chucke
I've added little bit of that and little bit of this. :chuckle

i like the exhaust note of the r32 and the awd... don;'t like the flappy paddle gear box or its insane price tag in canada, i'd get an sti or evo or bmw 135i for that money instead hands down

no torque steer?

he only drove 5 laps :chuckle

But still he said the magic words in the intro "Fun car to drive" ... if it's not fun then why bother getting an expensive car?

all i can say is ZOOM ZOOM ZOOM!!!!!!

no torque steer?

I think he might be a little older like me, who remembers what the Torque steer was like on my '87 Dodge Shadow Turbo :)

R32 is a better platform to build off BUT for TEN THHHHHOUSAND dollars more.. the 3 is a great buy! :)
