Does it trap better than 91mph? Autoweek just tested one and that's all they could do. Something must be wrong with their car.

04 Rally Red here. Definitely like the white better, but since I only paid $24k, beggers can't be choosers.

Florida RS here...WW too

Greddy ti catback and Xede so far, as well as a cusco trunk bar.

As far as trap speeds, 91 must be some sort of mechanical failure...

yea i just got done taking a crap reading that issue and they said they only ran a 14.5 1/4 too, definantly some kind of problem there... and the end of the article was bashing that noone is enough of a purist to actually like the rs. even though i have the gsr i love the rs.

I like the limited nature of it as well as how subdued it is to most people. I ran into an lt1 ss tonight after pulling away from the light he was pretty surpised, he leaned out the window and asked if that thing had a turbo

Ww Rs

i got a white RS, I AM IN LOVE...First one in Texas (registered).
strictly stock, so far, but i get the respect anyway, the other night a pair of Xenon lights approach me at high speed, and then back off, didn't pass. i thought, 'ok, must be a Saab.' came to a light and this boxster sits off my rear. light changes, and i never saw him again. and then there are the Acuras and tricked Civics that want to street race...i don't care what my car does in a straight line, its in the curves that count//
does anyone know what SCCA class our cars (RS) are in for AutoX?
