GTI Competition
« on: 15 October 2011, 11:02 »
Just having a quick look to see whats out there and come across the new 3 series...

http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=24530

Must say the 328i with a 2.0 turbo would make the GTI look pretty slow in comparison

and the 335i makes the R seem very pricey  :lipsrsealed:

All with the power coming out the correct 2 wheels!  :cool:

Nix cars but price wise they are not in the same bracket as you'll need to add the extras on top taking the price of two about five Brownmore.

If you think the above doesn't make sense, I've just just told Siri on my iPhone 4S to type this reply :nerd:

this is very true! although i have to say it looks alot nicer initially than the (last 3 series) pictures of the base spec they release. So once this comes in m sport guise I am sure it will look alot nicer.

Back to the figures tho...

the bmw will give you 245bhp, 350nm, 0-62 in just 5.9 secs and still return a combined mpg of 44.1 mpg!!!  :shocked:

Compared with the VW

the golf will give you 210bhp, 280nm, 0-62 in just 6.7 secs and provide a combined return of 38.7 mpg.
