Videos BMW M2 vs. Ford Focus RS

[Betty Swollocks]

How about talking about the cars M2 and RS instead of debating over what comparison is valid or not? Its turning totally off topic and nasty personal insulting.

I agree. I've made my point (several times, which I like to do ), so I'm happy to drop it. It's not like @klier is suddenly going to agree with me.

Did you guys check the video I posted from Autotrader with the RS and a whole lot of hot hatches? That is in my opinion the best comparison yet, they go into even choosing which car sounds the best in a tunnel. Very entertaining viewing.

Thanks Martin. I agree, this is just "robust debate", and actually good natured from my side despite Klier's personal stuff. No offence taken @klier

Well let me then just say I already feel bad for saying that, and I don't even mean it really. It's fine if you keep me sharp.

I only wanted to add that I indeed have a thing against comparing cars with completely different ideas behind it. I just don't think it's fair to compare cars with different drivetrains with eachother. It's like comparing an orange to an apple.

I agree. I've made my point (several times, which I like to do ), so I'm happy to drop it. It's not like @klier is suddenly going to agree with me.

Partly at least, so that's a flawless victory from your side.

Yes my bad. The kiddie behaviour still creeps inside my posts from time to time.

I think many times we do, but the times we don't outshines everything.

I agree, despite my "disagree" rating as a joke.

15.2 sec to 200 km/h...that is crazy fast.

M2's laptime and slalom speed are impressive. The tested fuel consumption of 10.5 L/100km is even more so.
