I too would be somewhat cautious but I bet it ain't far off.

On the Top Gear test, didn't the AMD wipe the floor with the other conversions?

32k or 17k? I would never pay 32k for one, but I would pay 17k for something that someone else spent 32k on!

Traction issues?

Id gladly do it, but lets say i know someone who had contacts with AMD, lets also say, i was told too many things that makes me wanna run a mile from their stuff. Legally, i cannot go any further than that.

Id also like to state, i have never dealt with them.
