When I was out looking for a car, I was tossing up between GT, XR8 or Turbo. A friend of mine who owns an XR8 told me the Turbo might be a little quicker than the XR8, but the 8 will be pushing more 'Force' at the end of the 1/4 mile. I don't really know what he meant, but after reading this, I think he was just talking bollocks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOU WERE RIGHT... not saying theyre a useless car... standard and with equivalent amounts of money thrown at each... the 6turbo will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
