Surely you'd rather people don't know about the s2/urs4/urs6, for me it's kinda the point of owning one the fact no-one knows what it is! Wouldn't mind that v12 jag for a laugh though.

They are only looking at quick cars out of the box, where was the S4? What people dont realise is once remapped most of these cars become seriously quick.

The thing is, how many of those would you want to be seen in? Id have another cossie, and was recently looking at E36 M3 prices, but ...

Hmm, the cars are rated by 0-60 times. Even a stock S2 coupe (0-60 in 5.7) would be right up there with the quickest of these.

Wot no Impreza? My WRX was very quick but flimsy WOuld surely be a sub £3000 car with good performance I d like the NIssan 300, but with an LS Chevy engine
