More specs will be posted at a later date.

whats the deal with the vn and vp's being quicker than the newer vx's and vt's? is it coz theyre heavier or what?

A VT V6 is 200kg+ heavier than a VN V6 but the VT engine also produces more power - as a result both cars have more or less the same power/weight ratio. So I guess it's not that simple. It is weird though!

Still, you gotta say 0-100 in 9.1sec in a VT is prefarable to 20.0sec in the 48-215!

Thought I should also add... the VR was Wheels COTY 1993

Hmmm thats crap in some ways but its ok that i have a vr. smae engine as the vp but slightly heavier. good to know mine could beat the bigger better vs with all the gimicky gear.. like airbags...

Yeah - VR's rock! Although actually my car has an airbag... :whistling
