Rebel Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Whaaat, 3 pages in on a car forum and no diesel owners piped up?! I'll start then.. m57n>m54. Anybody with an m54 played with an Rx8 (231)? How did it compare? Actually once yes, a couple of months back and not far from where I live. I really wasn't impressed. By the RX8 that is.

Rebel Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Lol that is funny. w**kel is not a profane word but has been blocked, obviously because of the 1st 4 letters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerFish Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I had an RX-8, it never felt massively fast but never knowingly came across a BMW in it. Covered ground quickly though and handled very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n0v0s Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 My friend has a 231bhp model. It has incredible cornering ability. It goes well for what it is, but yesterday I managed to gain and just about 'walk' him after he got the jump. He wasn't too happy Then a wild s-type R appeared (wasn't thaaaat quick though //diesel fanboi troll -no but seriously). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerFish Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 It's as fast as an e46 M3 around topgear's track, despite being over 100bhp down. Says a lot about the cornering compared to the e46! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keano Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 It's as fast as an e46 M3 around topgear's track, despite being over 100bhp down. Says a lot about the cornering compared to the e46! It's also about 200kg lighter so that will help it through the corners. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
