I find it funny how americans always want more hp, but can only crawl along on your roads.
The Tib looks fantastic. More than that, it SOUNDS and HANDLES like a true sportscar as well, even though it doesnt have the hp. So what if a civic is faster? What;s the obsession with speed anyways? You get over 900 models that can go from 0-60 in 6 seconds and a top speed 250kph. Thesedays, power and speed are not really a factor anymore.
What the Tib does have is great low-down torque. And great tractability, too. I've cruised along at 50kph in 6th gear, without the engine showing any signs of labour. Its a touring sportscar car you can drive everyday. If it had a prancing horse on it, everyone would have been queueing to get one. Face it, ferraris costing 4 times as much dont have all that much more hp anyways.
