www.redbook.com.au

They have virtually everything you need.... although not all cars (in fact most) dont have0-100km/h or top speed info.

Also try the NRMA's motoring section for reviews, they have alot of info and if your car is their, 90% of the time it will have alot of acceleration info (0-100km/h, 400m, 0-80km/h etc)

Thats all I kno of, you can also try just like www.drive.com.au and find the car, then go to 'specs' and that has info on kw's etc.

i find the nrma info not that accurate... you better off just googling it, something always comes up. redbook is spot on for power figures.

Don't bother with the official sites. You have three main options, or so I have found.

- Redbook.com.au - offers lots of info on standard equipment, and optional features, but often deficient on specific engine information, and other technical data.

- http://www.carsales.com.au/pls/carsales/!cs_content.research_search
Carsales Research section. Lots of info, expecially on newer cars, covers all the bases, and has no confusions with imported cars - all stats are strictly for Australian cars. Power, equipment lists, even good introductions for the model.

- http://www.carfolio.com/specifications/
- http://www.globalcar.com/datasheet/
Both of these are linked, and are great for pretty much everything you can't find on Carsales. Has all the information you can imagine on technical data, ALWAYS displays the power and torque, and anything else you might need. Doesn't have the exhaustive equipment lists, though - mainly because it is international. Highly recommended.

Haha if you're not serious (ie. just for interests sake) you could always just refer to video game guides LOL... I used to refer to my Gran Turismo 3 strategy guide when I was just after little things like FWD/RWD/etc.. but if you are serious, just google it- something usually comes up :)
