Trimmer, lets see that interior...
Here you go! The 04 has 320 horses and you feel all of them. Just like the 986, etc rhe later years got bigger motor horses. It's got great big meaty tires on the back and I think it plants just fine, but going through the gears it just doesn't stop. You would be surprised...on the hwy you need 6th gear or you will be doing 80 at 4000rpm!
