    Corsa VXR Artic

    Hi

    Im a total newbie on here and was wondering what the differences are between a standard corsa vxr and an artic. having a quick read through the forum i gather its a full remus exhaust system?? any thing else? How much should i be looking to pay for an artic??? Sorry for all the questions. Im thinking of coming from Focus ST ownership to a corsa vxr and saw a artic in my local dealership yesterday!!

    Thanks!!

    The VXR Arctic has over the standard Corsa VXR;

    Limited Edition - 500 Units

    Glacier White Paint

    Gloss Black 18" Alloy Wheels (The 18" alloys that are an option on the standard Corsa)

    Gloss black mirrors

    Remus Exhaust (Pre-cat and backbox, not centre section)

    The big sunroof (not an option on the standard Corsa)

    Darker window tints on the rear glass

    Also the rings around the vents are white.

    Price wise, we're doing them (not 100% if we have them available) for £15,420 with 6 months tax so somewhere around that price I think you should be aiming for.

          IMO, drive the car for atleast 6 months without anything done.

          Then you'll know what you need to start doing, engine, traction, styling, sound etc.

          That's what i did with my Corsa SRI... But then i have now a VXR, which is much quicker, only done a few things to it through. Haven't lowered, for now i feel that the control is 100%, so no need to change...

                        No mods? But with a remus already there you can go get a stage 2 map straight up?

                              no, because remus is not a full system on the corsa.
