[QUOTE="morpheus5039, post: 509564, member: 6539"] Both of the car he mentioned is M50B25, horsepower is the same (189hp). Maximum torque also nearly same (245~250Nm). Just that the torque delivery different. More torque comes in earlier in VANOS engine compare to non-VANOS (compare with same M50 24V engines). There is only difference in horse power when you compare between M20B25 (12V) and M50B25 (24V), 168hp vs 189hp. The acceleration between the M50B25 and M50B20 is affected mostly by the torque difference, 194Nm vs 245Nm (nearly 50Nm difference). If you compared with M20B25 (168hp, 222Nm, 12V) and M50B20 (150hp, 194Nm, 24V), you will still feel M20B25 much powerful. The difference is because the ~30Nm torque, plus M20 engine is SOHC, the torque delivery comes earlier. As for the thread starter question, if I were you I would buy based on the car condition.
