I Test Drive The Xr5 Turbo Today.

[West]

Good engine response, turbo kicks in Hard, rev hard and brake is excellent. Very good for a stocker though its still a front wheel drive.

Oh also come with a 1.2bar boost gauge, along with oil temp and oil presure, 6speed close ratio box. You beauty.

What like a gti golf?

Id prob go the new volvo over the XR5 tho. Just a little bit more different, little more sleeper appeal.

[Angry]

i drove one yesterday myself..... was a trade in .....15000kms and they still markd it for sale at 32990......

far too expensive in any ones language.. new or for 2nd hand. considering the market its put itself in. in comparison to other cars available at similar pric.e

i did take a likening to it ... inline 5 with turbo.. has a unique note....definately not a 4banger. and has a nice burble hehe.

i rather a TypeR civic though handling wise.

Man law No. 24:

Is there a man law about driving a FWD car like some kind of pussy? I've heard buying a FWD car makes you grow a pair of man cans.

LOL

[Nismo_God]
