Maybe the question is, how fun is it when you push it?
Every start up I'm happy I got my 650Kms per tank miser/smile maker. Going uBer fast isn't the fun part, it's the everyday ability for cool!
Oh and I'm 130CDN/month insurance. It's ALL good.

I think maybe 70-75, the hood latch has been broke and I've been waiting for the hood to fly up. Even with the latch fixed I still probably won't push it too much.

You know you coulda gone to 4th. It keeps pulling in 4th, no reason to risk killing the car.
