Both cars are lovely! But comparing a non standard, heavily boosted engine to a standard N/A four pot isn't exactly fair?

Yes just up till the corsa was off the clock !
Its true hondas do very good power but torque is crap power is no good without torque unless it weighs less than 200kg and has two wheels
Yeah now I am calling bullshit until I see proof If a redtop can't beat one up to those speeds how can you with less power and torque? Also shows you know fuckall about Honda engines because they make 144lbft of torque compared to the 136lbft of yours?
144lbft at stratospheric RPM though, is it not?
