MK7 R gets 296bhp
« on: 21 September 2012, 07:45 »
We all know how similar the S3 and Golf R are, so the new S3 is basically the new MK7 R:



296BHP
380NM
40MPG
5.4 0-60

Using a revised EA888 engine.

This also has quad exhaust pipes, exactly like the MK7 mule car I posted in the GTI thread.

Rather have an 'r' anyday. This looks like a damn Kia, but I bet it won't come with a 7 year guarantee!
