I just bought a used M coupe and with less than half the horses it's downright scary what this car will do, although it is entirely predictable as long as you aren't dumb enough to try braking in a corner at speed. The effects of doing that are absolutely fucking terrifying! (Imagine hitting 85-90 into a turn, realizing too late that you should have entered the corner slower and touching the brakes. Under steer ain't the word for it. The front passenger side dives very, very hard, the ass comes loose and the inside wall gets too close too fast).
But the shame here is that an amazing car was wasted by a kid who had no concept of what he was doing. A mile and half isn't enough to do anything accept get in big trouble real quick.
