    Never gone over 80 in mine. 70 is the limit on most interstates out here. I prolly could go faster, but theres no reason for me to.

    Sounds like fun to me, but I haven't even used the second row of seats in my cruiser. I don't have any practical reason to own an SUV even. As soon as the Z is up and running reliably I'm parking the cruiser at a friends house for a bit.

    Eh, it gets a garage over it, and it doesn't have to deal with the stress of driving in the heat as a commuter. It's not going anywhere, but for driving to work the Z makes a lot more sense at 26mpg and removable roofs haha

    SUVs are great if only for the simple fact you can throw shit in the back and not have it get wet in the rain (toppers aren't really water proof). The fore-aft balance is better, too.

    The 4.0L and the ability to throw my telescope in the back are honestly the 2 main reasons I bought a new 4Runner.

    Speed isn’t everything, but I’ve driven a turbo frs.. that chassis is so capable with more power. It handles great and with the umph behind it it can really be a Porsche killer in the right hands on a track

    That's what I thought when they first came out, seems like a really fun well balanced car, but decided not to turbo it. I've heard people say it's because they didn't want to take sales away from the WRX and STI, but I don't see them as very related

    04 911 here, got up to 85 on a road that was dangerous in a regular car at 20. Scary as shit but super fun. Car was overall very slow but handled well. I wouldn't buy one ever though
