gee, When your in the car you can feel just how much more it pulls higher in the rev range. it does not tail off...

Also compared to most speedos ive read on GPS its very accurate. At 100MPH the EK9 speedo is only 2MPH out so thats a pretty realistic speed, not only that, i was going through the gears off and on loosing some traction in 2nd gear, hitting the limiter/loosing momentem etc etc........ I wasnt dragging or trying to drive optimum, i only posted these up for the simple reason of, why not aie? bit of fun......

And yes, obviously its MPH as the end of 3rd gear wouldnt be hitting 100KPH(60MPH) would it, work it boys :)

And yes, dubseven, i do tend to get my arsed wooped by mondeos.... Even my fiesta van gives it a good run, not quite though.

ive been in it and its pretty quick but if feels quite relaxing quick, its hard to explain but its far from slow

Driving it julian its a pretty mad drive, i wouldnt say relaxing when your flooring it behind the wheel...... But yeah, nothing as wild as my starlet.
