    its a very brute car. Feels very solid and it feels like it was made to handle a lot more power than even georges had.

    It had fairly good throttle response, and linear acceleration with plenty of torque and an angry growl.

    I didn't take it out on the highway but it felt pretty fast on the streets. It didn't feel faster than my X was...but hard to say. Totally different feel and power band.

    I wasnt a fan of the interior or the heavy numb feel the car had around corners. It grips fairly well though considering, but had lot of body roll and pitch. It has a sort of disconnected feel to the road. Almost like your floating with 400whp under you.

    Overall fun car...just not my personal style. I can definitely see the appeal though and the car feels like its ready for war and wants twice as much power.

    The clutch is very heavy and releases high...but wasn't hard to get use to. Tranny and shifter felt real rugged as well.

    I can see why George tries to race people in it...the car makes you feel like youre in a Damn boosted tank powered by angry gorillas.

    That is all

        Agreement on all counts. Interior sucks. Motor is pretty much good to 1000hp. Not the best handling car but compared to a New Edge GT, or even a new Shelby, it runs circles around them. Car is useless for speed on the street, lay into it and youre all over the place. Im not sure I would let you get on the highway with it LOL 3rd gear and up and its adios.

        A few heads tonight, and BEST PHOTOSHOOT EVAR. More on that later, courtesy of Matty
