if someone "wanders" on to a 70mph highway they are dead. A car hitting a person at 70 will kill them just as well as hitting them at 60mph

Well.... AMG's are "family sedans" too, but they do 12 second quarters and beat new Z06s when they came out. "Family sedan" does not equal slow

Why are BMW's so slow in reality ( specifically 335i )

So imagine my shock...
