TypeSvWRXvSportMegane

[Clayts]

Last two paragraphs from Motor Magazine Jan.05.
The WRX is still a benchmark car,& it`s more often imagined
fighting against V8 s than other fours.However;against the
relative scalpel that is the TypeS,it has nowhere to run &
nowhere to hide.
OK,the TypeS is less extravangantly feral than the TypeR
was.But,on balance,the the TypeS is a better car.A better
car,too,than the WRX & it easly has the Sport Megane 225`s
messure.It might not be as fast as either of them,but it`ll run
them close in the coners,it`s easier on its tyres (& insurance),
& it`s the car that`ll make you smile the most.

It`s a very positive write up of the Integra TypeS against
the other two cars.

Sounds extremely biased to me.

agreed. like saying a nissan pulsar is better than a gtr because it uses less fuel, cheaper tyres, less maintenance and lower insurance.

Sounds like a pretty fair reveiw to me.....
"It might not be as fast as either of them"
"it`s the car that`ll make you smile the most"

Maybe the reviewers idea of a good car isnt it's outright speed like a lot of people on here seem to think......

I agree too.

Well depends on how you look at it.

A Hyundai Excel could be better than a WRX if you look at it purely from a fuel economy point of view! But there is more to a car.....and it seems like this reviewer is either biased, or his/her primary focus in a car is something completely different to most other people.

Actually until any of us read the whole review we cannot say whether it is biased or not.

[mpd076-chuck]

Most reviews so far seem to speak favourably of the Type S. It seems like a good `drivers' car.

What do you guys mean by biased?

[Sp3rMz]

I guess its true...gotta read the whole article to give a proper opinon.

[gundam]

I am completely biased as I drive one. Yet i am too willing to be on the record that the TypeS is a much better car to own and drive than a Rex. Much more civilized and easier to drive in daily traffic.

At the same time do keep in mind that Wheels actually excluded the typeS for the Car of the year award....

[Phantasm]

It also says the type s is faster than the previous type r's, how true is this??
Yeah given it has 7 more kilowatts but it weighs 70 more kilos tho doesnt it???
Anyone have a clue, as integras arent really my field.
