Performance figs
Discussion
Hi everyone,
I'm a bit of an interloper on here. I've been considering getting a VXR for a while now and wondered what they were like performance wish when running around 500 bhp?
I currently have a Noble and eventually want to get a Z06. In the mean time i thought the above would be a good compromise as I don't use my Noble in bad weather (A lot of the time here then) and want something that is fun to drive and i don't mind taking out on runs when the weather is poor. I'm a bit of a clean freak and the Noble is a pig to get clean after a good run in the wet!!
Does anyone on here know what the 0-60 and 0-100 times are? I know figures aren't everything but it would give me an idea. Also what are they like with 500 bhp in NA form compared to strapping a SC on?
Thanks in advance
James
P.S. Just watched a vid of the VXR 500 on 5th gear and it looked a real laugh.

I had around 480bhp in my old sedan with the ls1. 13.2 quarter with 1.8 tons on stock 235 street tyres. 109 mph.
It drove real well. Better than a recent 6L supercharged I drove.
I prefer NA. TBH not many have gone the NA route, so you wont get much in the way of feedback from those who have driven both.
