this figure is BS. bog standard Starlets are the best part of 900kg. i suspect that webpage has been made with rose tinted glasses
Exactly I've been in a standard one and they are nippy but not 6.8 to 60

Fad I've seen the 0-60 quoted at 6.8/6.9 on various different websites. And plus toymota owns one and seems to know enough about them, and she says it's 6.8 aswell... so I'd go with that personally

Look I can appreciate your going to deffend your car and a Corsa even with a 2ltr is not a fast car by any standard, but seeing as the Glanza has tranctin issues (from what I saw at the pod where its sticky) I aint going to belive that figure for one moment.
Beaten a 2ltr Nova Glanza struggle to run low 15's I've seen this with my very own eyes and not just one or two I'm talking about 15-20 running up the strip.
Although I was very impressed by a Starlet GT with 300bhp @ the wheels but all that power went to waste IMO
I do like Glanzas as I looked into getting one but I changed my mind after going out in one and they are not as quick as people make them out to be.

Thats absolute rubbish, if you have then both nova/corsa didnt try, I have raced my mates starlet countless times in my 106gti and beaten him everytime except from a standing start. On the move from a rolling start in 5th gear from 60mph I have beaten him all the way upto top speed.
His has just been RR @ 140bhp on Dastek roller which are supposed to be very accurate.
My corsa was quicker than the GTI I have now so a standard starlet/Galanza would be no problem what so ever.

I aint saying that the starlet/galanza is a bad car infact I really like the galanza and modded they car be VERY quick cars BUT a standard one aint that quick on the move, maybe upto 60 they are quite nippy but after that they aint to impressive

1) i am a 19 year old girl and not a 18 year old lad.
2) my clutch is slipping as it is standard and cant take the power im currently running. just waiting for a new paddle clutch to arrive
3)soon as ive got the paddle clutch on an some other bits, i will be straight down to pod.
gonna see what times i can run with is as it is now, then when am running about 250bhp, ill pod it then aswell.
my mate owns the blue one with 300bhp. that is pretty much unusable power in a front wheel drive car
