THIS IS WAY GERMAN ENGINEERING IS THE BEST AN R32 goin 170 mph like notihng they are built for high speeds/auto bahn check out the video.... http://www.gumball-3000.com/rally/20...nd-360-modena/

 

Its about time another NA 6 cylinder engine powered car that costs no more than $35k can smoothly travel at 170mph. Kudos to VW engineering and the combination of a nice NA engine with AWD.

With the other being mine, even though it is still being debated. I will try to find the video or speedo pic that sparked it.

 

dont you think that with it being in France or where ever that was it would be KMH not MPH? That means it was going a lot slower.

If you looked and heard closely the steering wheel was on the right side and the folks inside have a British accent. This means that the car and people inside were from the UK where they use MPH and not KMs as the dominating standard.

Also, if you looked at the speedo it showed KMs in smaller lettering, like our speedos do in the US with the max being 290.

 

Nooo cause the guys r british and in england they use mph just like us...it was a gumball rally then travel all over europe...

i thought the r32 in europe was turbocharged pushign 450hp?...and no need for a triple post.

 

ahhh noo ur probualy thinkin about the hpa version thats a turbocharged r32 its the stock N/A 240 hp 3.2 v6

 

this is the one ur probualy thinkin of .. the hpa version goes 0-60 in 3.2 sec and goes 202 mph on pump gas with ac and full interior...does 11 seconds in the quarter THATS WITH FULL INTERIOR!!!! http://www.motortrend.com/features/p...12_0401_tuner/

 

the guy could have keep goin a litttle more he didn't want to push it...i hit 160 on my old 98 vr6 it went smoothly they sure do know how to build them for that kind of speed.. and i wish the highway here in the states were like the ones in europe..

 

That car is in Gran Turismo 4, and it's actually cheaper than an R32. I thought that was hilarious because I just bought an R32 and was tuning it at HPA. Then I think I noticed the R32 in background picture, so I went to their Special Cars section. I forget the numbers exactly, but I think the HPA model was like $10K less than a stock R32 with like 500hp I think.

 

the Eip Tuning r32 is even better then the hpa 600 hp r32... Eip and hpa raced at waterfest and eip r32 beat it.... heres the dyno video , the car sounnd so mean..Turbo just screams for more watch the video its quite entertainin
