New CTR will be an allround better car, down on power but also weighs less and will out handle it like previously!
will cost less and im my opinion looks 10x better than the astra.

haha its true i love honda.
guessin the drivers are aload of tosh, i mean on 5th gear the ctr had the clio round the track and both driven by tiff.

good result by the vxr tho tnite, hate that ford to be honest, proportions look all out, rear overhang is huge, front grill to short and stubby.
altho i think vxr needs to lose that front v-grill and rear chrome stip
