    Nothing like getting passed in the straight just so you can retake them in the corners.

    For me, nothing better than being passed on the straight then me passing them as they're sitting in a gas station!

    Yesterday I looked for the fastest cars and the cars with the best acceleration up to 60 PS, 70 PS and 80 PS, that can be bought here in Germany.

    60 PS:
    VW up!/Seat Mii/Skoda Citygo: 60 PS, 161 km/h, 14.4 seconds 0-100 km/h

    70 PS:
    Renault Clio: 65 PS, 167 km/h, Fiat 500 1.2: 69 PS, 12,9 seconds 0-100 km/h

    80 PS:
    Mitsubishi Space Star 1.2: 80 PS, 180 km/h, Smart Fortwo electric drive: 75 PS, 11,5 seconds 0-100 km/h
    But the Space Star is on second place with 11,7 seconds 0-100 km/h.

    The Space Star is the only sub-compact car (not minicar or microcar) that weighs less than 1000 kg (ECE standard including 75 kg for driver and 90 % fuel in the tank).

    I wouldn´t say that the Space Star/Mirage is a very slow car. It depends on how you drive it. I drive it very slow .


    Mitsubishi Space Star 1.2:
    Daihatsu Cuore L251:
