That is Z territory as far as that slalom went. Also, with a proper launch, the MS3 can do 0-60 in under 6 secs stock while the Si is around 6.5 - 7.

Put into proper perspective, neither car is as sport oriented as the Z. But neither claims to be. The real problem is when the Si is marketed to compete with the likes of an MS3.

But meh, /rant
