Well its relative isn't it.
I don't think the astras "quick". Its nippy, but then someone coming from a Smart Car will think its super fast.
If you have a 2.0 Corsa for arguments sake, a Skyline will feel fast.
If your coming from a Tuned Porsche or Ferrari, it'll probably feel slow.
Ronnies Skyline however, is NOT slow. 0-100mph time similar to a Superbike, and 205mph is not to be sniffed at. And from personnally watching it go past me about 15m away at over 200mph, I can honestly say, its not slow..........

Did you used to get the Bus down the end of the runway as well ?
Awesome down in that speed trap!
I used to love watching all the cars disform at the 180-200+mph bracket!
Especially the CRD Supra with its door blowing out!
