Trust me Punto GT is faster than R5GTT.
I raced my mates totally re-built R5 GTT off the lights was dead even, his first was slightly longer got into second and I started pulling away.
He had a ported & polished head, DV, side exit exhaust, mine was standard.

Yes R5' are better to look at, I agree. GT is much newer and less likely to pop.

Have a Silver R5 and a red one in newmarket and fuck me they are mint!! Will get some pics next time i see em!!
Agreed on the punto thing though, as know one expects it to be fast, you see a 5GTT you instantly know what is !!!!!
