I just don't get why someone would pay 2x the price of the toyota just because it's got an aston badge

not even entering the motorway? theres a sliproad i use to get on a local motorway, you can do 100 leptons by the time you hit the main carriageway, not bad for a torqueless car going uphill

its how VTEC works matt, a second set of lobes on your cams, when vtec is engaged a lock pin locks the bigger (higher RPM lobe) to the smaller (lower RPM lobe) so that the profile of the larger lobe is used instead of the smaller one, therefore leaving valves open for longer

there you go

It's more the 0-60 in 9.1s and 129mph top speed. It just feels quicker than that and I've had mine at 127 and it felt like there was more to give
