Honestly? It felt about like mine on level 3 with premium. With a couple of more shifts. I only got it up to 55 as that was the speed limit on our test drive. When I punched it though, it hesitated pretty good once while it was gear shifting.
I have some pics of it on my cell phone, but it's a hassle to upload them from my phone to anywhere. They just got a 2009 KR in, so I might go take a look at that one. The finance guy called to tell me about it. I'm happy with my 2008, but I'd love to have a 2009 KR!! I like the body style, and the b-pillar being further back. Roomy things. The Scab looked about as roomy as my Screw. Almost. A new Screw would be hard pressed to fit in my garage as it's 6" longer. I don't want to buy tags for it either. Mine ran $540.00 here in Colorado when I bought it.
I love that new car smell though. They had 2 of the GT-500's also!! If it never snowed here, then I'd get one of those. They actually sell them at MSRP, instead of adding 20k to it.
I also like the new air baffle? design on the 09's. It's a smaller, less obtrusive intake tube thingie than mine. Looks even harder to change the plugs though. The engine appeared to be even farther back than mine, but that might have been a perception thing. Would hate to pull a head, either way.
