and that's what ronnie says the stick shift is a much better fit for the sports to play and the vast majority are sold with one you have to put in the effort yourself and it's up to you how much fun you want to have. with those close ratios and smooth shifting it's child's play to navigate quickly through the gears and it's easy on the pocket book coming in at one thousand five hundred euros less than the automatic transmission but when it comes to the engine there's no choice. that's fine it's ronnie says the two leader boxer is an engine that absolutely wants to be revved because it only achieves its full torque of two hundred five newton meters at six thousand four hundred r.p.m. that means not much happens below that and you don't really notice the one hundred forty seven kilowatts the engine puts out until it's really turning. but one against the. knowing it does what it's supposed to. when it's comfortably growing

my father that's summing up ronnie says the super all b.r. z. is precise like a sharp sushi knife he thinks the two leader boxer engine could use a bit more power but that's not essential because the subaru b.r.c. wasn't built to set speed records on the highway but the adult corners with composure and so called. the b.r.c. is a sports coupe a that emphasizes driving pleasure along with a growing box or sound and the good price performance ratio it also offers an exotic flair for german roads. the formula the racing series has been around since two thousand and fourteen and now there is the jaguar i paced intro for the motor racing series as well this year's event brings together eight international teams competing in different i pace motors ford vehicles team germany is led by christian do or.
