2. Test driving a car not yet through it's break-in is also not doing me any favours.
I felt like I had to mentally extrapolate many of the things that make the car what it is purported to be. I can only hope I haven't extrapolated incorrectly. Especially as I came out of the afternoon having placed an order. 
With specific regard to power, however, I did notice something interesting. Even without the opportunity to really push the car and toss it around, every time I thought it didn't feel powerful enough and was wishing for more power I then promptly noticed that I had already blown through the speed limit.
A bit more power would of course be welcome, but I suspect that a decent test drive route and a broken-in car might tell a whole different story about any need for power. |
you're right, the route specified doesn't do anything for the car. but this is the same type of route that you'll be driving. I'm thinking in my head, is this really want i want to drive? or do i want more power knowing that it'll be my toy.
I think because the car is so well composed that you don't really feel the acceleration of the car. I gotta drive the car with just ahmed in it. lol. Instead of an additional passenger.
