I haven't done much research on the Century of V10 so I can't make any comments on that but I can comment on Soarers... :wink:

My previous statement still stands...your comment was directed towards both Soarers and Centurys.

Just did a bit of a search for the factory specs on both cars and I found thsese.
The VR4 with manual was spec'd at 13.7 1/4 mile.
A TT Soarer was spec'd at 15.1 1/4 mile with manual.

:)

So with the 'factory' sepc's the VR4 would be the winner ... however it would depend on the 'talanet' of the dirver (or lack there-of)

*sits back and watches the boys argue someone* ;)

Although its a game, Grand turismo 4 being quite acturate features the Legnum Vr4.

Its absolute Junk, Goes fast to 60mph because of 4wd but after that its so slow.... once you FINALLY get to 200km/h it takes about 20 seconds to get to 215km/h! :lol: :lol: :lol: talk about slow... this is in stock form of corse. After that it can barely reach 225km/h

IMO they are two very different cars,

one a touring car the other a skis-on-the-roof sort of thing....

vr4s came out what, 1996, so to be fair, compare with the single turbo vvti 1jz soarer of that era :P
Current: , '96 SubaruImpreza
Previous: '92 EE80 Corolla, '91 JZZ30 Soarer(The single snail whale), '91 AE92 FXGT(Silvertop 20v), '92 JZA70 MkIIISupra (The twin snail whale), '82 MkV Cortina.

the vvti soarer on GT4 is very quick total destroys the Family wagon vr4.

Its called a Lexus sc300. The silly thing is theres no turbo sc300 2.5 litre lexus models, its only a 3.0litre
