Finished production in 1993 and held the record (until a couple of years ago) as the fastest production saloon car ever built.
In 14 seconds you can go from standing still to 100mph back to a stop. And it isnt just fast in a straight line!
Even by todays standards in a world of V10 M5's, RS6's and Brabus Benz's the performance is impressive!
