Performance cars have become so insanely powered that I would be reluctant to drive one unless I was on a road course. I don’t know the specific hp of that model but some of the 12s push 600hp. Not the sort of thing for a wannabe gangsta on those narrow British roads.
You are very correct.
Most folks are overmatched with 200 hp let alone what is widely available now.
I’ve been driving small cars for so long, that if I purchased something I really like, like a Dodge Charger, I would be driving really carefully for a while.
