Drive it...that's all I can say...sports cars are not just about top speeds and lightning acceleration, especially figures on paper. If that were the case, you wouldn'd include the 914 by today's standards....for that matter, most sports cars of the 50's and 60's as well. It's interesting to note that the figures you quote aren't much different than those of the 914.
In the end, handling ability is key here.....heck...my mom's '70 8.2 liter Cadillac was faster than most anything way back when, but watch out for the first turn! So, on paper, fast and furious, but by no means a sports car.
Don't get me wrong...I love the 914, otherwise I would not have one. The principles are similar here.
Cheers,
Mike
