ED30 in CAR Magazine
« on: 03 August 2007, 15:40 »
Just bought this month's issue of CAR magazine and it has a 13 page spread on.....wait for it....

Audi R8 v Audi RS4 v BMW M3 v Porche GT3 v Golf GTI ED30 DSG :cool:

Don't get too excited though as the ED30 is "waiting in the wings" for most of the feature. :rolleyes:

so what wins then?? Evo put the R8 ahead of a 911 the other month albeit not a GT3 so would be interesting to know the outcome.  Can you PM me please so as not to spoil if for everyone else  :smiley:

The GTI Ed30 does much better than you might expect. It's quite a balanced feature - Makes a change for a car mag!

RR - Should we tell them about the awesome standard GTI upgrade coming next year?

Hmmmm..... well then

Next year the standard GTI will get the 227bhp engine from the ED30 :evil:

And here I was hoping it would remain exclusive :cry:

Should have known better considering they did the same with the MKIV anni.

Well, although the Ed30 engine is slightly different I'm still glad I've got what I have, and that's a modified GTI which will have the performance and handling edge on any standard Ed30 - Not that I'm into road racing or any of that stuff. There's always a newer or better model to come, whenever you buy anything.  :cool:
