i guarantee you that wherever you're driving it - if you downshift and bring it up to 5,500 rpm+ you are *all of the sudden* going pretty fast.

and as a side note, if anyone owns one of these and thinks that their own car is slow enough that they talk sh!# about it, they should probably get a different car, with lots of the hp's to prove to all those guys that want to race at all of the stoplights how fast and well endowed they really must be.

Word of caution - be prepared to bring out all the trolls whenever you dare say it's fast.

It's plenty fast enough. It's absolutely poetic in how it delivers.

Note: on useless stock tire of course.
No problem doing the same on my 200TW Direzza ZII Star Specs (in oem size), just bring the revs up another 2-3k rpm.

i know that you can spin the tires but I miss my old mustangs ability to just stomp on it in first and start to melt the tires. I know this ain't that kind of car but man was that fun.
