I feel like i have to race around for it to drive like it should, almost like the revs are lower then should be if that makes sense. I have tried sports mode, but it doesnt seem to make much difference, it shifts through the gears quicker but still not as responsive in acceleration as i feel it should be. I have test driven other SV6 from other yards and they didnt have this issue, not sure how i didnt notice this before purchasing it (wife loved the color), lol...
With the sentiment that you fell like you have to race it around..... I could similarly say much the same as my 09 AFM SS. At light or moderate throttle openings it is a sedate drive. Any one could jump in it and if moderate throttle openings barely be aware it's a V8. They are definitely built with economy mind set, but give them a bit more throttle they'll get up and go.
