    My special toy

    I posted a pic a while back, and thought why not properly introduce it! People who see it call it 'The Batmobile'. It's got an agressive rasp to its exhaust, but it's nothing compared to the green one - open piped V8?. The cost? A lot. Show off? Moi? ;)

    My special toy

    A few months ago, I got this. It's a beast... plastic, and no driver aids, with a claimed 400bhp. 3.7 0-60 and a claimed 180+. Personally I'd believe 385+bhp, 3.7 if you can actually launch it, and 160mph (the rear spoiler is more of an air brake). Future mods will be to cut out the vents...

    Santa`s JABBA IHI powered LCR

    Modded Leon R32

    Some thoughts.... I hate painted engines. The colour outside is nice. Inside, less so. Nice exhaust.... not. The front looks like an accord. All in all, no thanks.

    LC Vs Honda Prelude VTEC

    And in answer..... Having had a 2.2 Prelude, and an LCR. Handling: Prelude. Raw Power: LCR, so maybe a dead heat with a just about standard LC? Brakes: LCR just, so LC - dead heat I'd guess.
