Poor man's Ferrari!

I don't think this video's been posted to the network. But found it somewhat interesting...not only is the svx considered a "poor man's ferrari", his version came with turbochargers!!!

Re: Poor man's Ferrari!

I don't know where he came up with the twin turbo idea but that SVX is normally aspirated. Obviously he didn't bother to open the hood, or should I say bonnet.

Re: Poor man's Ferrari!

yeah he completely discrediteds himself with that comment. It's statements/videos like this where rumors originate

Wow.. that was terrible.

50% of the hassle? Ha.
I loved how the turbos kicked in when he floored it, really shows.

He probably felt the step down into Power mode and saw the light and fig it was . He did mention the lag.
