..just a quick question, kinda linked to the previous question by RX7aberdeen...

...what type of cars would a standard RX7 3rd gen outrun?? heard various stories about boxsters, impreza\'s and the likes.....

Guess it\'s all dependent on what roads, what traffic, what speeds etc. But i like to look at the good ole power-to-weight ratio to get a rough idea.

So....a standard (assuming you mean 265bhp) rex would beat Impreza WRX sti PPP, Boxster S, BMW M3 (E46) Convertible.

Obviously there\'s more to consider...traction, gearing etc. But it\'s a rough guide. A standard Version 5-6 rex (99 onwards) would leave an M3 coupe, or a Carrera 4S. Rotary power, baby! :D

I p/xd my impreza sti for a std (apart from a back box!!!) rx! only an rb thou!on fri

I found the rex was lot higher geared and had a lot more top end speed  but the impreza was very quick lower down and the power deliery was a bit better!

But still very pleased with my first rex!!!!Will get some pics up soon.
