btw, those power ratings translate into 247hp and 280 ft/lb of torque :eek:
|
I don't understand the decision to make a 280 ft/lb FWD car.
Zoom Zoom to the left!! |
sounds like mazda's version of the srt-4
|
it'll come with a LSD, so torque steer *should* be under control...

Judging from the MS6 that shouldn't be true.

I think the next mazda minivan that comes out will have a factory turbo and shoots through the 1/4 mile in 13.9 seconds and slaloms at 70mph... (puts on flame suit) while the rx8 would still feel neglected.

its a mistake that is power in kw at 5500 as per the specs. the spec say 380 (newton meter) which = 280.273617 pounds force feet for T |

Barely looks different than the usual 3. I was looking for something a little more aggressive. Oh well....
|
Very agressive under the hood =D.. 280 tq on a FWD, it'll sure be faster than civic SI(competitor), but dont know about its handling capabilities, but o well, everyone wants HP, and not care about handling anyways

It's mazdas contribution to a future trend

So the next thing we'll probably see is a stock Civic that outruns the S2K?

Anyone else think that 6.1 seconds 0-62 is WAY LOW?
If the Mazdaspeed3 weighs anything close to the 2750 lbs of the regular Mazda 3, then with all that HP and TQ I think it would be a lot closer to 5.5 seconds or lower. Definitely in SRT-4 territory... |
