The Normal RS does though, which is probably what he meant.

I know. I meant I'd rather the normal RS, in green if all the RS500 comes in is that shitty black colour...

But these are just FWD aren't they? I think that is a little too much bhp for a FWD..

They are amazing for a FWD car, they will out pace a 4wd of similar bhp all day long.

According to the few people I've spoke to, who own them, the RS has been quicker.

It does look pretty cool but I think the vinyl wrap ruins it a bit. Why couldn't they give it a proper satin paint job if that's what they wanted to put on it? For the price you're paying I wouldn't want to be buying a car that has a massive sticker on it.

It would take a brave man to do to a 35k car but peel the vinyl off and your left with panther black which is an,amazing colour for an black

Amazing.



From who I've spoke to in that situation, they've all said the RS has come out on top.
