Default Yeah, the manual (3708) weighs more than a 2000 Tip (3704)? Whatda....!?

I didn't think ESP was more than a couple extra sensors and utilized the stock brake (ABS) components... but where else could the extra 100+ lbs be coming from? That's a whole car length in the quarter mile, bummer.<p>Darin
01 Black/Onyx on order

Default I was afraid of this, which was a prime factor in grabbing the 2000...

yeah, but the '01s are meant to have the shorter gears for better acceleration...
