Now now, for those of us who don't drive extremely fast cars....don't rain
on my parade...haha. Actually, I meant effortlessly in that the car, which
had only 136hp, achieved that speed at a comfortable rate. Most low
horsepower street cars I've been in can't hit 140km/h. I was no proponent of
the mechanical problems with the car(bad tires, suspension bits, brakes,
slushbox etc),it was in need of a major overhaul, that was before someone
ran into the back of it.
I think what made that a great driving moment was that some guy in a brown
GMC pickup was trying to pass me, so I just decided to make sure he couldn't
get by. I showed that yokel that his truck can't even do 90mph.
It was nothing like my friend's (same friend)Eagle Talon TSI AWD that got us
up to 160km/h in a short city block near my house. Probably the most crazy
fast street car I've been in.
