someone needs to open a topic "197 to GTR"
Not really, they arent worlds apart, its not like were looking at Micra to Ferarri F50 now is it ?
Both nice cars but we know which one is the best, its just the consideration of insurance, fuel economy (or rarther lack of) and build quality. I dont think the R32 is a car which will be a "drivers" car but in my opinion it looks good and its well built, quick and plenty of torque, stick it on some good springs and have it remap'd (And the gearox can have a remap too iirc?) and i think it would be equally as good. If my parents will throw the money at me when it comes to my 21st ontop of what ive saved already, i would definately get one if the insuance was "affordable". which it wont be. So i wont, and i know it, and i dont even want to look at quotes.
I would like to steer clear of renault when i get my next car. Its either the New Ctr or R26 for me, or, if by some miracle i can afford one, a MK5 R32.
mk4? It's faster than 197 pal.
Turbo LY R27
^^^MK4 faster? really? Had a pop with one in my old 182, it was neck and neck he could get past me at all. I know he was trying, coz he was chasing me because i didnt see him in my blind spot when pulling out and he wasnt very happy lol. Needless to say i was trying hard to lol!
Has to be mk5 imo. much better car, quicker as well. Would go for DSG tho, manua all the way for me.

To 90 your right there's nout in it. Above that the R32 is significantly faster! My Bro has one as does my dad. To 90 my old 172 was quicker, then he caught past and could pull away if we kept going.
I can vouch for that too... and that noise!! There aint much that sounds better than a 32
E90 M5 Any v6, beit the VW,Alfa,Reno,
The mk3 VR6 sounds stunning!

Interesting to see that people are saying that performance is comparable upto 90/100mph, then the R32 will pull away with ease.
That isn't going to make a great deal of difference on public roads is it really, unless you're always tanking round in tripple figures all the time... which I'm not! lol

Instead of an R32 go for an Audi Sport 240. It is basically a light version of the R32 but has a 1.8 turbo matched to the 4x4 system. It only has two seats and will hold its value well as it was a limited edition. The seats are awesome too! This car is on my list of whats next against a meg r26 and a JDM CTR.

Never heard of it, sounds good!
The TT? Aye nice motor. PP's were an option so not all of them have them.
Errr...PP - Pole positions (Recaros) not much like the Sabelt ones...
And i would question your opinion on the TT being like the R26R...There was nothing fancy about it other than a touch mroe power and a set of buckets. It was more of a cosmetic exercise as a last run.
(Nice cars don't get me wrong. ColinG's old one was a peach!)
nope.I think it's some french guy, does a lot of track days and has a lot of clio VS xxx videos and trackdays.
He's now sold the 197 for a 182 I think
here's him vs a clio V6

also has a clip with the old CTR etc..

They fit pretty similar, but the TTs are chunkier than the R26R. The TT 240 has a reduction is weight through no back seats and removal of sound proofing. I am pretty sure it has a wider track and stiffer set-up. they can be had for 11k now so bit of a bargain. However, for 11k I d buy an R26, as i need rear seats.

That is a mean car :evil:

Agreed, the mkv is just not my cup of tea, the mkiv is however, stunning.
Spesh with the konig seats.
There ok...Not amazin tbh! The recaros in the mkV are better imo!
