Car feels.fine until you have to slow down. The suspension is not up to the task. Also with a full bolt on n54 160 can come very quickly so you don't need a lot of road for it.

160 on the 15 south to Temecula. 145 in the carpool lane on 405 south toward (weekday morning) :-)

pushing the brakes at 155, 160 has to be carefully done, this car are made for perfect european roads, so that unstable feeling is the road.

I think the brakes are awesome by the way.

Maybe with the performance springs will improve that feeling.

and is correct , you dont need much of road extesion to get to max speed.

awesome little cars .

Springs dont do much

You need coils or at the very least shocks and low springs

So.....you were driving over twice the speed limit on an open public road and decided to pop out the cellphone to grab a picture of the speedo? That's great.

and with the traction control off.... so even if something happend, all fail safe systems are shut off so the accident can by twice the size taking out more innocent people.

158 and my limiter kicks in....not much of a need for the SLD but still debating if installing it next spring.

THANK YOU!!!!

When people ask if I have a cell phone video or pic I wonder what is wrong with them. Finally some common sense that taking a pic at 160+ is a poor idea
