SKODA RS / RS2

So the new SKODA RS has been launched and beefed up a little, it now has a 2.0 litre engine of 200HP (same as Golf GTi) compared to the old one wich was 1.8Litre and 180HP, both equipped with turbo of course!
The exterior has changed as well as the interior (new front, back, seats etc.) another thing I noticed is that you could get a really good soundsystem now. I listened to it at a Swedish Skoda retailer and it was in fact really good!

This is the old model (wich I have one identical of):

Performance figures

Power 180 bhp / 134 KW @ 5500 rpm
Torque 235 Nm / 173 ft lbs @ 1950 rpm
BHP/Liter 101 bhp / liter
Power to weight ratio 0.13 bhp / kg
Top Speed 235 km/h / 146 mph
0-60 mph Acceleration 7.7 s


And here is the new one:

Performance figures
