I want to see it with the needle at the other end of the scale before you make claims like that :)

Your right Cusscuss, the Cordia Rev's as sweetly as the taste of cordial on a hot summers day :P

Pull off the cross-over pipe on a Cordia and rev it to 6000rpm and believe me you'll get hooked on it :D

It also explains why I haven't bothered to hookup the Intercooler on yet too :)

Just ask Decoy :wink:

If a cordia did 330km/hr the vast amount of wind force would squash it into the shape of a starion.
Watch your speed - It's virtually impossible to pick it out of the carpet if it gets blown off the table.

The funny thing is the needle might reach the 330 mark, but the car would be up on bricks. I can't see any cordia reaching 230 let alone 330 :twisted:

I used to own an ex-chaser cordia , and believe me , they can reach 230 (with some extra weight to keep it on the road) :D

It'll reach 330 alright, but it'll probably be flying half the time too :x

wait, your serious?

you think a cordia can reach 330km/h under its own power, like not being thrown off a cliff?

16" Wheels with 50 profile tyres says it can reach 320Km/hr :twisted:

+ 500HP just to make sure it can cancel out the wind resistance at that speed :P
