REALLY....Do we have to be online every waking moment. TURN IT OFF!!! Take a break while you get the chance......check in late if you get bored hanging around....Strike up a conversation with a real human.....!

Relax...market forces with deal with the pricing structure.

Yes has Genie extractors and dual exhaust.....drive through a tunnel is music to my ears....Top Speed on freeway was 240KM/H or 150MPH.

No need to change gear to pass cars.....put foot down and listen to secondaries open up......I took out the radio because it sounds so good.

Has outlasted girlfriends and my other cars.
