Our little 2.2 Ecotec can beat a 08 Dodge Caliber in a 3 block drag race at 85 mph. before having to slow down because of a cop at the red light.

when i visit my parents every other month in northern arizona, there is a 40 mile stretch of road where its perfect to open her up. just flat open road that is decently smooth. with my 2.2L i can get it to about 116 on that stretch. i can't seem to push it any further, it's bone stock so no extra juice i can rely on.

And you have the 2 12's that adds a little bit of weight so that slows you down. Not by much tho.

No... really wanted that but when we purchased ours the SRT Roadster was special order only and added a big difference in the sticker shock.

I'd probably have no license and be broke from paying speeding tickets if we had the SRT anyway...
