The seats are also amazing. I read in Car and Driver that its not much faster than a 1.8T but its a perfect autox car. I guess since I'm used to a slow car, 240hp is not going to seem slow.
Actually the R32 makes a poor autocross car because of the weight. Heavy cars tend to be poor autocrossers unless they have a ton of power and a lot of rubber under them to make up for it (read: F Stock).
