**The Power and Performance of a 830 Horsepower Car**
They actually even had more power than this, it was at like 860, 870, but they dialed it back for the safety of the gearbox, and yeah, I think that's a good thing because it's it's very very aggressive. We're also running E40, uh today so a bit of ethanol inside here, uh yeah black on black as I said, so we've got black leather, we do have the buckets which is amazing, and then yeah, it's I feel like it's a bit too loud for a Saturday morning 8:00 a.m. but uh yeah, I'm sorry people, we just we need the space on the autobahn that's the only reason why I'm here this early, so yeah, let's just head out for a little drive because you guys have seen this like a million times before, uh and you just want to know what it's Like on the road.
Well, we're going to hit M2, that is, we've got Sport Plus, Sport Plus sport sport sport and then traction control off, and then manual for the gearbox to have a bit more control and uh yeah, that's basically it. The issue with this car, uh predictably, is the fact that it is you know it's so torky, it has so much power, and those cup twos, they do need some time to heat up, I do believe the horses are here, I'm not sure how close they are, yeah, they're too close. Oh sorry, sorry, sorry, they're too close; no matter how far it is, so loud it also has so much power, it is outrageous.
So this is third gear, you really need fourth gear that's when it starts the grip, uh, it is outrageous, it really is. It's also not the most sophisticated car to drive it; it is a bit rough around the edges sometimes with the power delivery, it can be a bit jerky, it can be a bit I don't know, it's it's not the the most smooth power delivery but when it goes oh, it absolutely flies, it is ridiculous. It's way too much power for for a b road; way too much.
Actually, uh drives the car on track a lot, uh so I'm not sure how you're going to do that man, I think oh yeah, that's fourth gear, that does grip po, that's very fast but yeah, I think ber is going to drift around all the tracks in Europe with this thing; it's just I mean it's very manageable, uh because the car is amazing, it has an amazing differential gearbox. But you know when it starts to slide around, it's actually it's really nice and controllable; it's just you you need to like take into account that you've got so much power, you've got more than enough power to like keep going, so you need to like be relatively gentle with the throttle but there like when I hit the throttle there in in fourth gear, 25, 30% throttle, it it started jerking a little bit, that's the only thing that I noticed other than that.
When you're on it, it's it's really really fast and it does like perform so I'm going to hit M mode for the speedo, and put the gearbox in automatic, and mode for the speed up because the GoPro keeps dying on me, and on Martin during the utaban run. So but this Speedo is big enough for you, I think jeez Louise so we are going to get a tire pressure notification, but uh that's uh tire pressure is fine, I don't want it to be too high because then you know you have even less grip, with this thing.
So we're going to keep it as it is; should be absolutely fine. Oh but it just it takes off, really does, I mean you give you just floor it at 250 and it takes off like you're doing average Motorway speeds and that's the weird thing about these cars that uh when you're an automatic it does really like to shift from 7 to 8 because that's the first limiter but then when you shift manually it does go beyond that, but it is outrageously quick. We did 5.1 seconds, uh 100 to 200 and that was with quite a bit of wheel spin because it just it's not able to put the power down really, uh below 100 K an hour.
But man this thing, oh I don't really like that front suspension, I think it's a bit too loose; it's not really as tied down as they can be. Lovely morning, I mean, I hope I've given you guys an impression of what it's like to drive this thing, 830 horsepower, I think we hit like 316 so that's not too bad but I'm going to return it, so yeah, that's it for today, thanks for watching.
