Well I guess that 220lb/ft is good, but my 140hp V6 puts out 185lb-ft. Sure
it isn't a lot, but it is more than enough to launch a 2900lbs car. BTW I
also have the added disadvantage of a 3 speed slushbox :( The funny thing
is that when I got this Beretta in June it was at the limit of what I could
afford (I am a college student and had only one job). Now that I have a
second job and I can afford better I see a lot of cars I would love to buy.
An example is a fully loaded 1997 Talon TSi AWD w/ 5speed. I almost cried
when I saw that car for sale! Anyways enough rambling. Later.
