i know that its not a racer but how is the launch , pull away & overtaking power feel of this car. Do u have to drive it hard to get going ..

 

+1! It is a much more powerful engine than most belive before test driving.
Also the 8-speed auto tranny makes it so easy to launch, at any speed.

 

once you've got used to the 'box and power bands it's pretty quick. hit the throttle right on pull away and it will still spin the wheel pretty hard

Above 40 it just keeps pulling and the 8 speeds keep it right in the 'power band'

had 130mph so far - ssshhh don't tell my wife (she was asleep in the passenger seat)

why would you need more power than this? - in the REAL world

I'd recommend the sport 'box which I didn't spec. when driving fairly hard the standard 'box changes down to late and up to early.

took a test drive -
bit lag on pull off but ok as the revs pick up - cruises @+200km/h easily.
full kick down not hectic - doesnt throw u back .
car def feels bigger .

 

How many miles did the demo have on it?

Mine has changed over 6k miles in terms of engine pull, the gearbox seems better too

 

+- 8000km
