Normally the driver is sponsored so I'm sure it's in his/her contact to wear the suit for all meets and media situations.

From what I gather, he wants everyone to know about this car because it's so much fun. He wants everyone to drive the car and enjoy it because it's a fun car to drive.

I'm loving the sound! I can't wait to get my hands on one! Bring on June!

That automatic tranny doesn't seem too bad.

Cant lie. He made that automatic look easy and fun to drive. :happy0180:

whoster · 02-16-2012, 03:01 AM

word being used more than once is "fun" towards the end.

Kiwi · 02-16-2012, 03:10 AM

I'm quite impressed at how fast the transmission seems to be shifting. Sounds kinda like a dual-clutch.

dori. · 02-16-2012, 07:44 AM

I dunno for some reason the engine sounds way more mechanical here than in previous videos.

I wonder if they are running the stock tires that will come with the car or have they been upgraded? Anyone know?
