Tuscani sucks.......

HEY

Last weekend i went to the Athens International autoshow.
I saw tuscani there and was disappointed

Specs:

2700cc 167hp/6000rpm-Torque:250NM/4000rpm

Top speed:220kms
0-100kms(60mph)in 8.5sec.

So my opinion is that a 2.0ltr tib with bored TB,IM,CAI and headers easily reaches 167hp.
Furthermore there was no red painted calipers at the front!!!
The car had 17´´rims,and it sure looked good but no performance.
FIY Civic Type R was there with 200hp of 2000cc!!!!But it was ****ing ugly.Also Toyota Corolla t-Sport was there with vvtl-i motor and produces 192hp of 1800cc.But it was also very ricy....
I was very disappointed of Tuscani...

Finally the interior is much much better than 1st and 2nd gen.tibbies sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

Those modifications without an exhaust would gain only 12-15 HP max, probably less.

It looks like Europe and Korea got shafted this time

Bout time the U.S. gets the "fast" version of a car.

For years weve gotten the 2.0 Elantras...i think last year was the first time Korea got it as an option. Were not behind in everything!
