Don't ask me how I know they will actually do that fast! You have to get them on the road and 'blow them out'.
I'll bet Carguys knows!
CaptJon, IF that car goes that fast you can bet I won't be in it!! My husband doesn't want it for the speed he just likes the look of them to tootle around in.
Friends of ours have a Shelby Cobra and my husband took a ride in it at Christmas time and he went 80, way slower than this car and haul. He wasn't fond of the speed but loved the car! I guess we are pansy race car people!!
