[s-cars] What does an s-car weigh????

[joeamund]

Hap!
I'd say the weight is way to much, either due to the driver og too much use of 
steel on the body.........

And I do not think the US-way of manipulating the perfect Motronic 
boost-curves has any to do with it, rather trying to make a perfectly 
disguised street car a track-animal.

Best regards Joern
MTM RS(about your weight) and a red Sport Quattro(pretty much lighter)
