Out of the RX8 and into a Polo GTI

[shortshifter]

As the title suggests i have recently sold my RX8 and moved into a more practical and much more economical Polo GTI. The RX8 was a lot of fun to drive hard. Day to day though it wasn't so good- all of the power is found above 7000RPM and to get there one must flout the road rules. Polo GTI is a lot more fun in real life circumstances- overtaking, tight cornering etc. I'll be feeding off everyones good advice in the Polo 9N section

Happy Motoring

Welcome, they have plenty to offer and with a few light mods, it can kick in below 3k rpm.

See you in the Polo pages

Nice another Rotary owner welcome , i had me a few rotaries including a manual RX8 great handling drivers car but does need a above average driver to get the most out as you have to keep the engine on the boil due to lack of Torque .

The Polo GTI is better suited for point and steer type of driver i guess and as a daily

I now have a 2002 FD RX7 Twin turbo love my rotaries as well as a Polo GTI for a daily one thing they both have in common they both use a bit of oil the polo using way more than the rotary lol
