[rescue] Sun Netra = Ultra 2?

[John Francini]

Actually, Car & Driver magazine recently (within the past couple of  
years) did some 0-150-0 tests, and considers that the new 'speed  
benchmark' for exotic cars.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any info about that on their web  
site, and I'm not in front of my C/D magazine collection at the  
moment.  If I remember, I'll try to post something from that issue if  
anyone's interested.
