Look how good is the director. Even if there's no real weight, they tried to simulate it!!!

I had a R50 and was 100% satisfied with my car untill I tried to keep up with a MCSc on straight roads. At that instant I learned the meaning of the words, "Super Charger ENVY" On my first club drive with MINICCI I learned that a R50 can play in the twisties with the R53 ALL DAY LONG. But get the R53 on a straight away and They simply RUN away from the R50's at will. Especially a R50 with CVT Automatic Transmission.

Just as Agile, TRUE!
Just as fast, NO FREAKIN WAY!
