So much so that one needs to take care not to add too much input.

They're fast - not neck-snapping, off-the-the line fast like most mid-range European modern turbo cars feel like, but \"long runs up the tachometer into highly illegal speeds\" fast. Grabbing a couple of gears lower and darting into a tight spot on the fwy is always easy, but be judicious doing that at low speeds so as not to break the rear loose (in both 1st and second gears!). \r\n\r\nSurprisingly, mine being a dark color doesn't get much attention, which is really welcome for a daily Ferrari.
