Default Suburu Impreza vs Mitsubishi Lancer

Downloaded a car mod for rFactor today that has both Lancer and
Imnpreza. Just so happens that those are the two cars on my buy list but
I am leaning towards the Lancer so far. You think this mod will give me
an accurate representation of which is the better car?

No.

If you're serious about buying both cars, why not visit both dealers
and take them for a test drive?

Cheers,
Rod.

The Lancer is a ******'s car and the Impreza is a ****s car. While a ****
would be equally comfortable in either car. Take your pick.

No, they said it was better for a road car. The Impreza was a better track
car. That makes the Impreza a "better" car. However if those are the sorts
of standards you use when buying an everyday car, you probably shouldn't
be allowed to have a licence as you'll just lose it. Certainly deciding by
what a simulator or a video game shows has even less reality in it.
Something that real cars (along with insurance companies) never fail to
ensure is in ample presence.

Where did they say that? The video posted he says the Lancer literally
runs circles around the Impreza and that was on the track. I saw another
Top Gear video comparing Lambourghini to Lancer Evo and the Lancer can
keep up with the Lambo on the straights and out perform it in the
corners. From what I have seen the lancer is better than the Impreza in
every way.

The video was recorded from the *game*. It wasn't real life. Unlike what
Top Gear at least resembles.

The difference - on the show *I* saw was minimal. At least that's the way
Hammond put it. Granted, I just saw the one with MS and his new shiney
black car (dark blue?) - BBC Canada is not exactly showing programs aired
yesterday to put it mildly.


Besides, you're jut a troll trying to look good anyways - an impossibility
by definition.

You have said *anything* before this. Sorry, but you'll have to start from
*your* begining. I haven't seen you nick in this thread before.

And no, I *don't* care if another nick is yours as well. I don't play that game.
