Is it not the road condition (not unlike the uk) that suggests the speed limit???
If so the 12c is by far the best choice

On that point,ive just been down a road where ive never been down it more than 50mph over 25 years,and found i was doing 70 (until i slightly bottom out) even take it easy in the bently,really quite sublime

Touchè Some of our roads here are quite the roller coaster ride. And, I'm talking about national highways.

Faster than a 458 so maybe, yes, it might have been the Switzer.

Yes but the potholes would swallow the MP4 whole.

You just need to know where to pass. Not at all different from British B-roads.

My Fire Black awaiting transportation to
Greenwich, CT USA.
I am told my car will be here in Jan.,2012.

Default And yes

And yes,
I was the idiot that wrecked one at Spa, and it wasn't a rental.
Fortunately it was the dealer's car which they kindly, and now regrettably, had lent me because this car was late to be delivered. So could have been worse, could have been my car I wrecked.
