I used to have one of those until I drove inside the Washington beltway. It accelerated to 200 mph and then the engine caught fire.

LOL! We had this wonderful old junker of a Audi when we lived in Germany (you know, back when the earth's crust was cooling) and one day my husband decided to "really try it out" on the Autobahn. So, peddle to the metal, he let 'er rip. That Audi gave it her all: 35mph-60mph in 45 seconds! My husband laughed that cruel laugh of triumph you husband's have.

"There!" he crowed. "And you said she'd never go over 45[mph]!"
