a standard 106 gti cant beat a 172 up the strip but a tweaked one can but 172 handles better than the 106.

3corsameal no the 172 looks diferent to all the others but then you have this the v6


yes thats a real viper mate same as this is a real

the 106 has been voted on many occasions by many different mags the best handling hatch, top gear tested a 106 against a 172 around a track and the gti out handled it there aswell

yep but as soon as you lower or change wheels - handling will be better on some cars- just cos they handle better as standard does not indicate there full potential

they are very very similar or they used to be but the saxo has been changed and the 106 hasnt really since it first came out and the 106 is slightly different when it was first released anyway only a bit tho
