what car have you driven that surprised you??
08 Lacer, I thought it would of been faster but it was kinda slow as hell even with like 150hp or something..even the salesman says its was slow and because it shares the same engine as a snow mobile he said...I mean all the features on the GTS was cool like the 600w speakers or something like that but meh almost 8k more then the tC.
Another car I test drove before getting the tC that I was surpised was the Si. It was ok.

The C6 Corvette, I really couldn't believe the car had 400hp.....felt more like 190hp at best. I mean the car is rediculously fast and all, but your soooo disconnected from driving it its not even funny. Way too smooth and no sensation of speed whatsoever.....with 400hp I expected to walk away with neck problems....but I didn't. Not a fun car to drive.

2008 Audi S8. That thing gets up and moves, especially for being over 4500 lbs.
A friend of mine was an enthutiast of those, he had 3 running ones over a span of 6 months and I agree 100%. Those things haul ___.

2006 E55 AMG. I could not believe how fast that thing would accelerate and it seemed like it would never stop pulling. But more surprising was how quiet it remained even when almost to the redline. And it was an auto.
Our shop truck 2007 Tundra V8 381HP 400+ torque gets up and goes and tows a race trailer with no effort.
2004 M3 stock on a road course.

PT cruiser. I knew it sucked but it sucked even worse than i thought(it was a rental). i think my xB has more peppiness than that POS! it sucked for merging on the freeway. but a car that suprised me was my grandma's 04 Altima 3.5SE, for a sedan that car goes. thanks to the VQ35 under the hood.
