I think it is the new Golf IV R32
Its a shame - they should have shoe horned the 4.2Lt V8 in that car - the engine they use in the S4, Touareg, and A8...now THAT would fun! Still wouldnt beat an M5 though...

no matter how good a japanese car, it still a japnese car in the end
even I have a s2000 it still a japnese car not as fun as euro cars
You really think your e60 is more fun to drive than the S2K?

BTW, I went on a drive with some skylines, R32 and R33, last month or so. Both cars were pushing roughly 600whp. The white R33 in particularly was a beauty.

Japanese cars and Euro cars have different feel altogether.

^Hmm, perhaps, but a sports car/roadster wherever it's made should be more fun to drive than a sedan, even a bmw.

S2K is better and much more fun than the e60 but not as fun as a super 7.
I like the R34 when it came out but itis a very old design and outdayed now.

So if I would choose a R32 I would definetely thinking about HPG Turbo (sorry for the german link).

BiTurbo Kit for about 30.000,-- ? pushing it to 530Hp, 640 torque. 600Hp on request... Some 10.000,-- ? extra for breakes

Measurements of the old Version:
0-100 km/h 3,9 s
0-130 km/h 6,0 s
0-160 km/h 8,3 s
0-200 km/h 13,3 s
Max 319km/h

this sounds good to me but how much in total $$$?
Is it going to be cheeper than a bmw 130i supercharge or even better a super light 7 + a lotus?
