Drove the MP4-12C demo in Florida

I drove the MP4 today in Miami Fl. I was one of the early buyers and my car has been ordered so one of the first to try out the demo. The traffic conditions were not favorable but it was exciting nonetheless. The overall drive-ability is most impressive.

The visibility is very good as is the drivers position in the car…I immediately felt as though I could feel if not see the boundaries of the car. This car could very easily be one’s daily driver. I had a 91 NSX and remember feeling the same way about that car.

The handling and suspension are amazing…and the throttle response is now..no lag and power available in all ranges. The fit and finish was very good .

I can only imagine what this car is truly capable of doing in the right hands on a proper venue. The Iris is not up to speed as of yet and probably will require an update sometime in April …but everything else is spectacular in my opinion.
