I didnt buy it for speed, I bought it for comfort, my back wont take being bent over a tank for more than half an hour so that ruled out a resin rocket!where as this has a nice upright seating position. 0-60 still comes up at less than 5 seconds which is fast enough to kill you. my diesel is still in the family it's just the misses has it mon to fri and I have her sat-sun
