2013 Peugeot 208 GTi teaser released

What are you talking about? The B16A2 Vtec makes 160hp but only has 111lb-ft of torque. NA engines don't have nearly as much torque as a Turbo'd one, and torque is what counts for acceleration.

Wrong the 306 GTI-6 was the last good hot hatch, maybe the 206RC as well.

People claim they are Peugeot fans and always talking about the same old 205...please grow up it's almost 3 decades since the 205 and people have been born and died, it's even scarier that you are nearing your fifties...that's the only way that you could still be young and have driven the 205 in younger days...well some of us grew up in the 106 GTi, 206 Gti and 306 Gti days, go complain and moan to someone who can relate to your 205 Gti heydays story....bring your beloved 205 Gti and race it against a 207 Gti or even a 206 GTi...it was a death trap which is why Peugeot have progressed and made safer cars witch compromised a lot of "good" features of the 205 Gti...thought you'd at least apply logic and understand...at least they are striving towards same driving dynamics....if the 208 drives exactly the same as the 205 it better be called the best Peugeot super-mini ever cause it would be far safer and more kitted. You don't hear Renault people moaning and groaning about the Renault 5 and Clio III. Please lay the 205 legacy to rest...that's like a parent wanting all their children to take after the first born, they are all individuals let them be...thank you...from another Peugeot fan!
