not enough to make you forget about owning a T5 :) If you want much more power you'd be better off upgrading to one.

Personally, I'd just pootle if you're getting one of those and enjoy the decent midrange.

Having just owned a 2.5 960 I can say that they're ok, but nothing compared to a T5.

As above. TBH economy wise, my 20v 2.5 auto was not much better than my T5 manual. I should just get a T5 ;)

And it certainly won't be very economical if it has a Supercharger put on it ;)

For the price T5's are now i would just go for one of them. I got my 850R for £850 at the beginning of the year. I also owned a T5 about 5 years ago and that cost me £2500! T5 or R all the way!
