The car definitely does deliver, wait until you get it broke in and on some empty mountain roads!
Test drives in this car are IMO fairly pointless. We all know the basic features of the car and there's no way you're going to get anywhere near close to finding out what it can really do during a test drive. |

1. Get seated comfortably. If you can't get comfy, don't get the car.
2. Make sure you can fit what needs to fit, like kids. 3. Make sure you like how it steers, brakes, accelerates, turns, and rides over bumps. 4. Merge onto the freeway and drive for a little bit. Go a little quick on the offramp and onramp. You don't have to thrash a car to know what it can do. Lower speeds are quite telling. I buy performance cars largely based on how they feel. I don't pay much attention to the numbers. That's why I have never bought an Infiniti or a Mustang. The steps above will tell you how the car feels. You don't have to thrash the car or take it to the track. |
