Next Gen Superb - 17/2/15

[2009fsi]

Are these now better cars than their big brother Passats..?

Interesting comments overheard between two salesmen at one of Sydney mega dealers: "Mate, these Superbs will sell." Yeah, they'll kill Passat."

[woofy]

Yeah I saw a sedan and wagon today at the dealer while dropping off the plates for my soon to appear Octy and they look very nice. They will certainly fill a void when the Falcon and Commodore die off.

Mate got a 206tsi as a loaner whilst his A7 was being serviced he was very impressed with it. Think I might wait until some more come in stock locally with the knee airbags with comfort pack tech pack and roof.

You'll get the same result as a stage 1 Mk7 R / S3 with a tune. Expect 270-280kW from stage 1 tune.

Which tune APR? Didn't realise the Skoda has 30nm less torque than the R assume tune will fix that

280kw would be nice to go A45 and HSV hunting

Skoda Superb Wagon Recalled For Sunroof Safety - Joins Volkswagen Passat Wagon

You'll get the same result as a stage 1 Mk7 R / S3 with a tune. Expect 270-280kW from stage 1 tune.

But isn't the DSG a limiting factor on the maximum tuned torque values of the 206kW TSI superb?

Entry level prices for Skoda wagon range:

Fabia - $17140
Octavia - $23990
Superb - $41690

They've missed an opportunity to correctly position the Superb range. That, and the lack of options means I'll give it a miss for the moment.
