Let me explain again: If I am at 2.5k in first gear or even second, the lane next to me in going over 60 mph. I want to get into that lane. I floor the accelerator and I have to wait until after the dip to not have heavy anxiety.
Can't downshift if I'm already in first or high rpms second. I know you were about to reply saying "downshift.."
For 30k, many cars are faster than the twins (you didn'tsay sports car). A jeep for example. From a stop and I just floor the accelerator (no clutch dumps) the jeep will be ahead of the twins. Obviously we will catch up and pass. But that initial torque is what makes you feel confident doing that slow to fast lane change. Other cars for 30k and under that are faster would be: wrx, gti, civic, focus st, fiesta st. and again wrangler. I understand those are turbo (except for jeep). But you didn't say what type of engine for 30k.

Also, you pointed out 85 mph. I can use 6th gear to pass easy in our twins.

To recap:
1) Our twins don't have good low to midrange power. But the car is NOT SLOW. People miss this point all the time and get triggered.
2) obviously, 1.5k rpm is overexaggerating. What I'm talking about is from 2.5k to 4k.
3) Yes, this car is a sports car and you have to rev it out. DUH. All I'm saying is that it makes it more difficult to daily than the new mx5 and the taco. Obviously the twins are very fun when you want to have fun.
4) 30k is not that cheap and you can get a lot of cars that will be easier to daily because of better low to midrange power.
5) Nobody is trying to tell everyone on the internet that the car has negatives. We are here to help op in his situation.
People always have to over exaggerate things or take things the wrong way and make it into a huge argument. I normally don't have time for this but 3 hour classes get boring sometimes. So this is more entertaining.

I don't follow. Can you explain a bit more in more depth?
