Default the new insignia

or the new vauxhall vectra to get 296 bhp and 4wd for the vxr model. i know somebody with one 280ps current model tunned to 305 bhp and it does the 1/4mile in 14.3 so with the 4wd it should be a big improvement.

not bad a 14.3 1/4 mile for a car that weighs 1550kg and only has fwd,
like i said with the new vxr with 4wd should be alot better and if the gearbox holds up, you should be able to tune it alot from the standard 296bhp and not just spin in all away off the line with the new 4wd (if its any good)

How about Subaru taking note? They've lost the styling battle, and now have a fight on their hands in the power dept.
