Sure, there are plenty of tricked up cars about, and I'm well aware that my ST isn't the fastest thing on the planet, but at 300 Kg with me on it, 85 bhp equates to about 250 bhp/tonne. So, with an average sports car weighing about 1500 kilos, you're talking about cars with about 375-ish bhp... Porsche, TVR, Ferrari...Not what I would've expected from something that looks like a repmobile.
I'm not sure about the straight line bit either. I can stick with an Imprezza in a straight line (well, a normally tuned one anyway) but I wouldn't fancy my chances around the twisties.
