Its funny how some people say "The civic will beat it". On paper yeah possibly, but how do you know any of these two can drive? Obviously Anthony is asking which car would beat the other on paper, but if he can't drive then it wouldnt take a lot to beat the VTiR. Obviously Jon knows this since he has a GSi and is beating VTiRs.
Basically what I am getting at is, it depends on the driver mate, and how quickly you can swap the cogs while keeping the revs up in your power band
Woops i was thinking of the mazda 2 :P my bad... yeah depending on how good the Mazda's gear box is and how it puts the power down (can't be that great since its auto) then i'd say it'd be a drivers race.
fair bit more torque than the VtiR though. It'd be enough torque to launch the mazda 3 harder but its not exactly a light car.
I'd think that a half decent Manual driver in the VtiR would beat a Mazda 3 auto.
Could be fairly close though...
When you drag him just launch it in revs anything above 3000... because he wont be able to sit there with his foot on the break above 3000, his box just wont let him do it.
