Hey we know some one working in BMW ma... hehehe can arrange to test with the full range of BMW's :-)
So conclusion is, MR2's are value for money... with less $$ you can keep up with the cream of the crop costing several times more :-P
you havent heard of a certain MR-S (UK spec) who outran a police car (new BMW) in UK. its only his moral conscience he finally stopped & subsequently was
fined &
his license suspended. btw he's a malaysian & .he now laughs of his foolhardiness but he relate back, the copper did mentioned that if he didnt
stop; they (police) about to stop pursuing him anyway.
this is no fib as the owner is now back in malaysia with memories of 1 1/2 years without the opportunity to drive in UK & a record $$$ fine.
but a car is only as fast as the driver anyway. regardless who & what car, be safe; enjoy the drive.
