We rented them when visiting Fla. several times. We were surprised at how calm and usable they are as transportation.
Until you floor it and unleash the beast.
The first time we rented one we were in Naples and decided to spend a couple of days in the Keys. So we got a room at Southernmost House and headed down. I had not really let it rip until I needed to pass a tractor trailer on a long stretch of 2 lane. On 41. I pulled out and mashed it. I grew up on muscle cars in the early 70's. I never expected that kind of acceleration. In fact the first time I actually backed out of it anticipating wheel spin. Of course there was none. But I never drove a muscle car with traction control nannies. I didnt want to get sideways on the crown while next to a truck with small shoulders and weed to my left.
It was a memorable ride through the keys and back and is the reason we bought the car now.
Would love to have more garage space. But what can you do?
