And that's basically why it was a race car in street car's clothing.
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.

I believe it was claimed to be the safest street legal car ever built if I'm not mistaken.  I remember reasing about the VP of BMW crashing one at 175 mph and doing 17 flips in it and he walked away.  He wasn't even wearing a helmet.

usually it's at 60 km/h
"On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit. And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit, and you think, 'Okay, this is the limit'. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high." - Ayrton Senna

That's some nice engineering.  The passenger cell was literally untouched.

You do realize that in order to do that, they would have to destroy another perfectly good McLaren F1?

I say no more crash tests.
