Only in Twin Turbo guise (this one is NA). I had a manual Twin Turbo for 15 years and it was fantastic. As mentioned, hugely under rated and easily tunable. Standard Twin Turbos produced around 300hp which was almost mind blowing 32 years ago when they were launched. It shows even the least desirable version (NA Auto) is appreciating. 10 years ago these were languishing around the £1k-1.5k price range.
@shona5512
@shona5512 2 роки тому
Only underrated if it's Manual with a Twin-Turbo. It's one of the few times where I'd choose a Twin-Turbo Auto setup over a Manual N/A car simply because it NEEDS the Twin-Turbos to produce enough power to haul that boat anchor of a V6.

@@whatinthe4500 Older autos have that attached to them for a reason. It's the sluggish nature of older autos that make them undesirable to 'enthusiastic' drivers. The autos the manual version is faster than I mean. Newer autos are much better so if someone says all autos are worse than the manual equivalent/a hypothetical manual version then yeah, I'd agree with you. It doesn't stop me wanting a manual version regardless of whether it's faster or not, but that's just because I want to have change the gears myself, get the satisfaction of smooth changes, etc, more reward when I get the things right instead of just planting my foot and an auto dropping the gears for me. It also keeps me more focused on driving when I need to consider changing gears myself to overtake, etc. If I don't have much to do my mind wonders off. I also drive tractors and they're so slow, basically flat out everywhere, that I drift off thinking about other stuff and I can miss some things around me. A bit like how the character in the original Fast and Furious with the white VW Jetta is relaxed by engines, I'm relaxed by having a manual gearbox when driving.
