The car was fast and quiet too. Flying around the freeway on and off ramps was so easy, just point the car and step on the pedal. You could even let off the gas in the middle of the turn and No lift...nothing, just flat. Now I wasn't pushing it to any limits, but I was moving at some speed. The damn car takes the fun out of driving. Heat, air, nav, so much shit. It was as plush as my Benz.

I said no thanks. It was nice, but not for me. I'd rather blow wads of cash on an old car.

I was driving one last week on the German Autobahn, doing about 140-150 mph. I thought it was pretty sweet. One day did have some pretty good crosswinds, I'd just left the Ruff Factory on my way to Lindau, had to keep her down around 130-135 mph, started getting light in the front end.

I'd buy one, but only after 3-4 years of production, give them time to work out all the bugs, cause they always have bugs that don't show up till later.

Later, Don
