Most all cars on the road in *any* country are speed limited to around a-buck-fifty (150mph). In that spectrum you've got cars that'll take all day to get there, and cars that can do it in the blink of an eye.
An H-6 with 280lb/ft of torque is *definitely* a good thing for drivability (and fun factor). That kind of torque coupled with AWD can put you well on the "blink of an eye" end of the scale. Sides', how many times are you gonna need to go 152mph? (although us 92' owners can already do that  )

That reminds me of a Steven Wright one-liner my brother-in-law told me the other day.
POLICEMAN: "Did you know that you were going 80 in a 55?"
WRIGHT: "Yes, but I wasn't going to be out here that long."
