ha i'll give you a short list of SOME super cars then.
Ferrari F60/ F60 FXX
Porsche 911 GEMBALLA 650/750 GTR's
Koenigsegg CCR/CCX
Pagani Zonda F/C12
Not forgetting tunned supercars. my friend is very good friends with a serious super car exotic car guru who is always encountering serious machines and he invites us down to days like AUTO ITALIA and we get to encounter these sorts of machines more than others and they've got cars even the the beat of us didn't know existed. one of them has got a 850 BHP ferrari F40 and that will fucking squash any and i do mean any jap car in striaght lines and deffinately around bends.
Madrod might be right about saying to not think fords are the best but then that goes for jap sports cars too.

hello all before you all starting to rant at me i own a typer scooby and im a member on scooby net i read the thread on s/n and pmsl at half of the coments you didnt deserve the abuse you got imo ive had 2 turbos 1 series one that cost about 14500 when finished and a concourse series two followed by an escort cos and all i will say is fiar play to ya i bet it tourqe steers like a bitch
to answer your question a p1 is like the series 2 turbo it is a tamed version of the type r the suspension has been softened the gearing lengthend and the dccd removed it produced 276bhp 0-60 in 5secs and top speed of 150mph the type r was 276bhp 0-60 in 4.2 secs and top speed of 151mph
as a everyday car my scooby is more reliable but it is also 9 yrs younger than my turbos and 4 yrs newer than my cossie was and as for the twistys coment after owning both my escort coss was quicker round b roads than my scoob but after modding my scoob it is one off the fastest accelerating cars ive been in

There's a lot of people on here talking about blinkers and stuff,well if you look at this thread and read the posts you will see there are more blinkered people on this site also.
The fact is youre trying to compare cars that are at leaast 13yrs different to each other,yourself to your kids ideas,80's music to todays music,if you see waht i mean.
In standard form a scoob should beat a cossie, but probably not over 120mph.
The reasons are quite simple,the cossie was built for the track was it not?where it needed good midrange and a better top end,The scoob was more the rallys where it needed to sprint and would rarely go above 110mph.
Now i use SN and PF infact they are the only 2 forums i use, both have blinkered idiots and some are twats also,that doest make any car better than the other,what these kind of threads do though, is show up who the twats and who arent.
I think people on Both sides of this fense should grow up alittle.
It would also be a valid post over on SN if it was a "standard for standard" race but odly the car in question has maybe 300Bhp against standard P1,it was obviouse who was going to lose,if only from the 4 wheel drive transmision losses.
Night Night.

you are one of the people who should read my post up from this one matey.[/quote]
i wasn't on the level of comparing cars but when people on this forum think no one else has a right to their opinion and imply things like scoobs are superior cats it kinda takes the piss. so i had to do it to show them what cars are the real boss' if thats the way you look at cars, NO!

Big difference between the RS boys and the Scooby boys is the RS boys don't tend to throw their toys out of the pram when they lose against something.
I've lost count of the number of times the smug bastard grin has dissappeared from the face of a Scoob driver and it's been replaced by a pissed off one because of being seen off by an old FWD Ford. I know I can't beat them through the corners but they thought they'd out do me on the straights first. It's only when they lose that contest the twisties get thrown in.
Personally I don't care what beats me. I will give full respect to a Micra if it showed me a clean set of heels.

Well without seeing the actual times for it running up the quarter or brunters its hard to say with absolute confidence, but personally i would put my money on Andy's scooby against an 850bhp Ferrari F40 all day long yes.

if we're talkin about bends then a standard f40 will cream the scoob let alone a 850bhp. the only thing i've heard of thats qwicker 0-60 excluding veyrons is pat doran's 1.9 sec fiesat but thats on different type of road

Car sounds v impressive. I have to say the Type R is the one that I wanted to buy when I was looking, but the gear ratios put me right off. Am I right in thinking that it has a very very short fifth gear? I am thinking of the STi V generation, which I think corresponds with the stuff you are talking about.
If I didnt do soo many Mway miles, I would deffo have gone for the Type R, cos I really liked the look of the 2 door.
Anyway - welcome

I think this is actually well funny. One guy says that people shouldnt come on their site and post one thread and waste internet space? But there are 7 pages of scooby defending afterwards.
Personally I like scoobys (never been in one though), but i'd still rather have an RSTurbo. Sadly I've never been in one of them either
Lets settle this, I think there should be a Subaru/Ford Showdown! Get me an airstip, a handfull of SN members, a handfull of PF members and a stop watch.

now days the average scooby owner is the ford owner of yester year so to speak, where as these days your average RST/cossie owner is an older enthusiast after cheap performance, not something to go tear arsing around maccie D's carpark. so the tables have turned. speak to your average scooby owner about tuned fords and they think your joking when you tell them they'll piss all over there shit slow standard scooby, they really are that blinkered. Your average RST/cossie owner tends to have a bit more general knowledge where cars are concerned, and know what most things are capable of.
I can honestly say that round here I havent seen a chavved up ford for ages, I live 100 yards form NMS, so I see a few and they all are either standard looking or slight changes a non enthusiast would notice, where as EVERY scooby around here has lexus lights and a drainpipe exhaust with bling wheels (how rally esque

You are SOOO proud of the fact you are on Pf.com but think Ford's are shit! 80% of your replies are slating Fords, bored of reading it now

I've just checked my "pocket of bother" ............. and it's empty!
You donkey - I've had two cossies, and still have a 200block engine sat in my garage! I had huge fun with it starting as a show car, at the Pod with it, on track more times than I care to remember.
I've been an RSOC member since 1998, and have probably spent the best part of a small fortune building, running and maintaining, modifying, and enjoying my cossies.
I've also driven some very quick examples of nearly every Ford out there, from standard Fiesta RS Turbos, to 360bhp Focus RS, with everything in between. I've also been a passenger in some of the fastest cars out there and loved every minute of it.
I'm also a realist, and in this case, where RS Turbos are concerned, it's simple common sense.
Anyway, don't you drive a fuckin BMW?

i dont think rs turbos are shit, i just reckon that time has moved on, they were great in their day but obviously 15yrs later they still arent goin to be the best. its like anything. for example, wen the mondeo first come out car magazines were sayin how good it is. nowadays a mag right up would be full of little niggles about it coz the latest mondeo is so much better where its evolved over time. its bloody obvious really.
imo, u cant compare 2 cars that have a big tie gap between them like a 1990 cossie and a 2003 scoby for example
