The GT-R V-spec got a 12.7 on the same comparo with a 300kw GTS coupe which got a 13.8. Arrow coupe with 370kw and 600+ nm torque should get mid 12's easy, by wheels times mind you. MOTOR should get it in low 12's high 11'd I reckon!

Yeah, got that issue today. I think the arrow looks incredible, kind of an XR at warp speed! I think the headlights are a sign of things to come for the Barra XR series, even though the article said they were 'off the shelf' items. Off what shelf?
I couldn't see myself in an Arrow, I'm too much of an Aussie four-door kind of guy. But I did like that red XR8 coupe the Hillier boys did a while back. I'd love to see a TE50 version....
When ARE Ford going to quit stuffing around and bring in the Focus? Hell, call it a Laser if they have to, but get it out here now!

Apart from the crappy rear wing, I think the arrow looks the goods. With 500 gee gees it should be pushing for 12s at least, how heavy is it??? Maybe a set of Mickey T's is what it needs to get a decent launch! lol
