It's like driving a supertanker.

The Elise is in the boot, oops sorry, "trunk". It's an auto too which has to make it the largest, most powerful, poorest handling go-kart I've ever been near.

II and a half? More like Twenty-two-and-a-half!

The 2.5 pertains to the weight... in tonnes of course. It's a fat whip though, and no-one f**ks with you at traffic lights

Knowing Americans it wouldn't suprise me if that was known as the short-wheelbase version

Bloke turned up at VMAX a few months ago with a Dodge Ram pickup which had an 800bhp supercharged Viper engine in it. Hit over 150 and was quicker up to a ton than a lot of the exotics there.

Scary machine

I drove a 1973 oldsmobile convertable around california for a few months. The steering was connected with jelly and the suspension consisted of marshmallow. It did 8 to the gallon and had a 6.5l V8 under the 3/4 mile long bonnet. It is a good thing it never rained cos the hood looked like it was a cats scratching post. I crossed the moharve desert in 8 hours and nearly fried worst sunburn of my life.

I cam back across in a brand new mustang GT -

Both cars were utter sh!t.

PMSL!

Amazing how oddly out of place those cars look in the UK, but are the norm in the US.

Drove something similar in Florida a couple of years ago. I tried to brake for traffic lights at the bottom of a steep(ish) hill but the beast was having none of it. We went straight through the lights, missed the oncoming traffic but took another 40-50 feet to stop the b!tch.

LEAVE A VERY LONG BRAKING ZONE!
