Oh for God's sake grow up. You constantly want the last word like some 9 year old spoilt brat.

Wind your neck in. Look up in the dictionary the word discussion.

Discussions would be very short if everyone had your attitude. I was replying to Richard to elaborate on what i said.

I strongly suspect that anybody with a commercial pilot's licence who used the phrase "unleash the fury" to describe opening the throttles on a small turboprop commuter plane would have been doing so sarcastically.

And you would be strongly ignorant i'm afraid. It has just as much (if not more) power in terms of its weight than the current 'big' jet i fly now, which is far more than you can say for the majority of turboprops.

But hey, this is MSE motoring, when has knowing what you are talking about ever been a criteria for posting your unsubstantiated, highly unqualified opinion as fact?

And just to give mercdriver a little tingle in his dingle, i shall refrain from posting more in this thread.

id say top speed is your top trumps stat, irrelevant unless in germany.

0-60 you do a lot, and the faster your car is at it, the less throttle you need to achieve decent acceleration and the more effortless it feels. (or you can also unleash the fury)

Oh and that alfa is supposed to be a sport track type car where you would definitely want acceleration.

You really need to get over yourself.

A car like this isnt about the 0-60 dash. And "effortless" isnt something people generally look for in a sports car either.

Carbon tub = VERY easy to write off for relatively trivial damage.

Any damage to that black central section means a replacement - which is just not going to happen. Structural carbon is simply not repairable.

Actually some of it is, but perhaps not by many in the car industry.
