After driving the Car for more than 4K miles
including driving from Canada to Florida I will try to give
my opinion on this machine.==First the noise from
the wind, the tires and the engine at 4000rpm or
about 70 mph is such that even if I was wearing
silicone plugs in my ears I was happy to get out of the
car after driving 600 miles.==The rear-window as
folds that will transform any two headlights car in a
20 lights monster so forget about the rearview
mirror at night.==The total weight the car will carry,
including passengers is 400 lbs. So forget about luggage if
you are taking a good friend with you.==Realy for
Hyway driving anyone is better in a Lincoln.. Where the
car is Fun is on those roads where you can only go a
speed that will allow you to keep that engine between 6
and 9K rpm or between 50 and 100 mph.in second and
third gear. The steering is incredible with neutral
handling, and the brake will stop you like a sand trap.
Like you come to a red light driving 60 and withing
about 30 feet of crossing you hit the brake pedal and
whosh you have come to a complete stop, no tire
screams, and no nose diving. It's so smooth it is
scary.==Now about that bad radio. When any of you'r former
friends with ther'e slow Porshe goes for an oil change
get a new Alpine System for the same cost.
