[QUOTE="andrewk, post: 196683, member: 3188"] Again layman speaking, I've been made to understand that this is due to the hp/weight ratio. HP for both engines are: M20B25 ~ 167hp M50B20 ~ 148hp [I](source: wikipedia)[/I] And they both pull around the same weight. I think that's why the fuel consumption for your car is slightly higher. Any sifu to comment? I've never driven a 520 before, so can't really comment which is more fun. But, I know 2 person personally that have upgraded their 520 to a 525 becoz they thot the 520 engine was a bit lethargic. Anyway, unless you're a power kinda guy, city drivin not much diffrence ler... the porsche next to me in the jam is also going the same speed!! hah hah!! [/QUOTE]
