in some ways i like that. i think the fact that its pretty tame (some might say weak or boring) below 4000 is what allows it to be a very easy casual driving car, but when you want it to move, the power is there, its just up high. When people say the car is slow, i feel like they are referring to the low end, because all i know is that when i'm above 4k at WOT, this thing hauls ***, and i don't think its slow.

That being said, i wouldn't mind if there was some more pull at 2500-4000
