At least you're not dealing with highway gears like in the '85s... a turtle from a standstill but ample enough on the highways. Sometimes I miss the brute force from my AMG, now THAT'S power!

All stock 123s are underpowered machines in today's automotive age so they are what they are. But we love 'em!
