No you can normally compare the floorpans of different brands all use the same type of measurement don't be confused by the fact that other announce daNM/rad or NM/rad or KGM/rad or KGM/deg or lb.ft/deg or lb.ft/rad is very simple to compare and find how many lb.ft/deg are X KGM/rad for example.

Mr Taurus i mean that we don't know if all these brands use the same norm of measurement....for example we don't know if the cargo acts in the same point of the chassis during the measurement.You say that it is not a norm type din,sae or ece....what kind of norm it is and does anyone knows how the procedure is done?

Is it true that in Italy the total sales of Bmw e46 are three times more than 156(from 1997-launch)?

Today we put an 159 1.9JTS in the dynamometer and it showed 160hp with only 600km!!!..NICE!!

un attimo...l'analisi non e' corretta perche avendo tre versioni lanciate successivamente compact coupe' e cabrio era certo che avrebbe alzato i volumi a meta' carriera...poi nel 1998 nemeno 3 berlina era a regime....comunque se vedi bene la graffica negli ultimi 3 anni maggiore flessione ha avuto la BMW....che e' passata da 32.237 a 20.652...poi fine serie vendeva piu' alfa 156...come vedi nel 2004..e le vendite 156 non includono la 156 compact che e; la 147 ne l'alfa GT...

si a livello Italiano nel 2000 le vendite sono state inferiori leggermente al 1999 nonostante la sportwagon ma e' stato il migliore anno per la vettura ma le vendite italiane erano solo il 33% del totale delle vendite 156 nel 2000..
