Tells more about the driving/handling of it... I haven't test-driven one yet. I have driven it a total of 8 miles so far....stayed so long at the dealer, that we got home barely in time for a scheduled dinner with friends.....but the driving I did do was varied.....suspension is TIGHT....turn in is CRISP and handling is borderline too stiff for the highway .... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ....Brembo's seem to haul down all 4300 lbs. pretty darn quick! The throttle is deceptive....it seems to be geared high....for gas mileage I suppose....but when you step on it...it has a ever so slight hesitation and WHHHOOOOOMPH....it goes....seems to be going VERY strong but not outrageous...I looked down at the speedo and we were at 100 and accellerating RAPIDLY.....didn't even THINK about full throttle either.... This car is gonna be fun to drive! :drive: (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) and I can STILL haul the family around in it!
