Thanked 1,005 Times in 711 PostsWhat is really interesting is that (going back to the age old 0-60 debate) although this car does not seem much faster than mine from 20 to 60 - the acceleration just goes on, and on, and on afterwards! And since 70 is the fastest I ever drive I can't prove otherwise
