The price of $45,000 UK pounds is insane!!! That's almost twice the cost of an US Evo. If you spend that much on modifying your car, you'll be likely at 700hp.

UK prices include their infamous VAT + Car Taxes. They are INSANE. But in the US its a LOT CHEAPER. IF AND ONLY IF mmna thinks of gettin them here, they will be a LOT cheaper than 45000GBP. more like $40k MAX. Still Cheaper than ur S4s and BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF Porches. I just wonder what tranny can handle 400whp STOCK.

More likely he's implying that 200 AWHP is an awfully large amount of drivetrain loss and that the number was 'guessed' at using the rather questionnable percentage theory.
