I hate to admit it, but the Spec V is just better. It not by any means disappointing. I got to hammer it in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear. Broke the tires loose going into 2nd and 3rd. And the limited slip made it presence know in the first hard turn I took. Can you say OVERSTEER. Damn it really made me wish I had waited another month to choose a car. Oh well.....I'll just have to make the best of my MP3. Anyone else get to test drive one?
