He appears excited that the engine sounds incredibly stressed while still under the speed limit. Video gets more amusing 5 minutes in.

Choice quotes "halo car" "best sports car you can buy anywhere"

"ooooh, oh, man that kinda gets the gentleman vegetable stuff really goin' there."

"awww, this is like driving a formula one car!"

"Im ready to sell my right testicle to have another go in this car"

"I can feel the driving experience down to my finger tips, down to the pubic hairs in my trousers."

5 seconds of burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr "Im STILL not breaking the speed limit, ah hahahahah!"

"The most FANTASTIC experience Ive had at the wheel of a cah in yeaaars."

"Probably the best sports cah you can buy anywhere."

5 minutes of driving my MR2 and he'd shit his pants, let alone a REAL sports car. This guys a hack. Funny though.

Because the car makes being under the speed limit more exciting, by sounding great?

i do have to say there is some fun to that.

i was driving an 8 year old scion TC for about a month. and you have to floor it and it makes all this noise and you arent going that fast and the car feels like its straining a bit to get up to say 85mph.

but its kind of fun in a way, driving a slow car fast. i'm in my normal car which is brand new, and you can appreciate that it is blisteringly fast compared to that scion and super quiet and buttery smooth. but it does take away that "its falling apart at the seams" connection that a slower car that isn't sound deadened and quiet would have.

Seriously. Stick him in a newer Porsche or the like that not only handles, but has power too, and see what happens.

The only thing I can figure is due to the insurance rates in the UK, he's never had anything bigger than a 1.6L engine before.
