I had 2 K03 Mk5 GTi's then bought a normally aspirated BMW 330, and really missed the Turbo shove. Can't wait to get back.
interesting to hear that. Im in the market for a new car, need a 5 door due to twins arriving very shortly and after 2 mk5's i fancy a change so ive been eyeing up bmw 330 m sports or leon cupras. So you wouldnt reccomend the 330 then?
Not if you like an exciting, sudden surge of power and toque! I've had 3 six cylinder cars with no forced induction, and they are lovely, smooth cruisers, and there is plenty of power when you need it, but it's progressive, linear-increasing power. Bendy on here reports the same with his normally aspirated 968. He misses the turbo shove too, and I think he's going back to a turbo motor.
But a 335i or 335d, now that would be a different matter......!!
