What can I say? This felt to me like Bat-Out-Of-Hell territory :)! I ran it up quickly a little past 4000 in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th and it did a LOVELY job :)! Afterwards, I had to drop fully off the throttle to allow it to roll back to the speed limit! Definitely a NICE piece of machinery -- I'm pleased :)!

Yup! Hell, even the measly 1st gen can move when it has to.

Ouch! Please! I'm in no sense knocking the original xB! I've only heard good things about it, and it's always neat when I actually see one out there (just passed one parked at a shopping center while on my bicycle this afternoon -- looked REALLY NICE! -- not to mention UNIQUE!) And then, of course, there's those boxes with intake/exhaust/header upgrades that pack on an additional 18+ HP :)!
