well the auto has exactly the same ratios as the manual so they both have the same 0-100 time. Also the normal 380 did 0-100 in JUST over 7 seconds without any turbo or supercharger, it was apprently quicker then the naturally aspirated sixes from ford and holden at the time. now its a bit different!

Yeah she does 0.100 in 5.x something, probably 5.4.

400m is less than 14 probably closer to 13.

I have one, I am in Torquay.

Bloody nice car to drive, without being hard on your back.

The TMR looks the real deal. I know the original grey AWD VRX S/C from the 05 Melb Motor Show is for sale at half price of TMR.

“Not only that but besides iproveing the power of the engine TMR have also improved the suspension steering and more importantly the brake package.. as they say power is nothing without control”

Umm the TRD Aurion also has a suspension upgrade and brake upgrade package as well.

5.4sec 0/100 thats faster than an FG Turbo using launch control?, how accurate is that assumption?

Should have dressed the GT with this kit/wheels and nostrils.

Looks good.

i phoned knox mitsubishi to get a bit more info on this beast, and where as the prototype featured a 5 speed manual with a ceramic clutch, this will feature the 5 speed auto found in the other 380 models. the reasoning behind this was because the auto handled the power better and people interested in the car would most likely prefer auto. also it is said that it goes from 0-100km/h in 5.4 seconds and does the quarter mile just under 14 seconds.

My money’s on the TMR as Ralliart had a bit of input into the research and development of the 380 and therefore would know a bit more about superchargers and other engine enhancements than TRD
