That's just stupid. It's not even about the power, there are plenty of cars with power that are very driveable, it's the fine line between where you're able to drive it and where it's just too much. You really have to have driven one to understand exactly what I'm talking about, but I'd put it only slightly below the 911 GT2 in the category of most likely to kill you if you don't know what it can do.

Nineteen years old, and finally getting my first car, so I don't have to drive my mom's all over!
I have one of those as a beater. My advice is to test the sunroof and doors by going through a carwash on test drive. Nothing like getting rained on inside your car with the windows closed.
