_Velocity_ Bronze Donating Members 2,768 Member For: 14y 1m 30d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 31/01/14 03:09 AM Share Posted 31/01/14 03:09 AM What's the big deal about the GTS anyway? Designing a car then dropping in an American donk is nothing new. They've been doing it since the 1960s. <br /><br /><br />IMHO they should be comparing this car against cars in the US right now not Euro cars. Similar conditions, price tags and handling but that might ruffle Detroit's feathers. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87268-vf-gts-vs-the-europeans-motor-mag-jan2014/page/3/#findComment-1452739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
