Looks like fun but not really my type of vehicle to be honest. It probably steers like the W12 too  :evil: :evil:

The test car they used was a 4wd synchro and not a rear wheel drive nut mobile like the W12 is :grin: It would still be nose heavy though :sad:

Would probably still beat anything here with 0-100?

Dont like the rally look to be honest, and I think if anyone was going to invest some money in an R36 they would be best waiting til the new one is/isn't confirmed. Im sure it goes like stink!! but i would rather just mod the mkIV R32.. personal pref i thinks! :cool:

Correct...3.6ltr engine from the new passat :shocked: that's why it has the 296bhp and not 247bhp.
