Howdy all,
I am in need of a new car since I wrote off my old vehicle (1992 Toyota Cressida). I've got a deposit on a 1998 VTI-R with 190,000km - stock. Only mods are aftermarket wheels (17" running some crappy Nankangs) and exhaust.
My favourite type of driving is through the mountains along the Old Pacific Highway (from Berowra up to Gosford, for those who don't know about it). I usually use a 2008 Ford Focus CL (2L 4cyl FWD) when doing that type of driving. Only thing I've changed on it are the wheels running 215/45/17 Dunlop SportMaxx. It am very impressed with the handling and grip from the Focus on this road. Only thing I can fault is a bit of oversteer due to the ride height and brakes overheating (given, this vehicle isn't exactly designed for this type of driving).
My question is that how will the two compare along the twisty mountain roads I love so?
