I owned a 182 for a week. My first ever one, long story short I'm the definition of lead foot and that fuel costs combined with insurance forced me to sell.
Anyway being the bellend I am and driving like a tit I had a go with a ST, both of us at traffic lights, pulled away and in 1st gear we both were the same with me red lining, put into second and I left him years behind. My one and only "yes I drove like a tw*t in a sports car and have a boring but not boring story in my eyes to tell about it" with it being my 1st and only ever driven 182 I can't compare it to anything else but it was stupidly quick. Put it into 2nd gear and the thing flew.
miss that 182. The new owner text me not so long after owning it asking whether it's been modded as apparently he kept up with a green ninja bike in the thing.
thats my two cents. Wasn't a race. More of a who can reach 40mph the quickest. It was me. I have accomplished life by doing so.
