Hi, I am thinking about getting an XL7. It must be a great machine considering how many people are on this list! I wonder if any of you can give me some extra specs. Like, especially how does it handle on sharp curves. I don't want to tip over! Does it really gets as good mileage as reported? thx!

Umm, sorry! Okay so perhaps it is too much to say the XL7 can tip over. But I also want to know what you all think of its performance! Especially in regard to handling in rough territory. I mean will I be able to hold my own with the big boys or will I just end up spinning my wheels? Also, I saw a lot terms I didn't understand. Is plug-ins the same as spark plugs? Is this a new XL7 languange like what GM had going with the Saturns? If so, I can dig, but I need a faq or something . . . Thx! --- In xl7@yahoogroups.com, Aaron Eppolito <synthesis77@y...> wrote:

Alas Poor Yorick,
You CANNOT handle this XL7... You will most certainly tip it over.

It'll pull about 0.8 G's in the lateral tests, slight more than say a
Mc505 on a similar course. As long you use premium fuel, your mileage
should be fine, add a booster supplement to get slightly more torque, at
the expensive of running the exhaust hotter (watch your cat conv!). Stops
on a dime too, an you can constantly restart it with the SHIFT+Play
combination.

Yeah, you can use the patchcords to help the ignition system, but the better spark will pull more amps unless you get a decent cap. Mine does fine in the rough stuff, but it's no spec'd out EVO if you know what I mean. Any extra bounce or sway could probably be sorted with some KYB's, mine are going on this weekend, as soon as I figure out how to use compresion to get the Eibach's off. Not that I enjoy getting them off, but you gotta do it eventually, ya know? rEalm Umm, sorry! Okay so perhaps it is too much to say the XL7 can tip over.

Wow! That sounds really great! Mc505, is that the new McLaren? If so, I almost can't believe it! I am definately getting one. So I take it the EMU designation is the name of the rodder that adds all these extra cool features. What does it stand for. Is there a brochure of the addons?

Hi, the XL-7 has a very fine electronic sound, I think it´s not so easy to describe easier to hear. Of course it can be aggressive, too, but always sounds a bit emu, you should like the filters. He has a very complex synthesis architecture and a (now) very good sequencer. The effect routings are unflexible, but the Outs could give you a external way. The Roms are very expensive.(350 Euro, you nearly could buy a small sampler for that) He do not sound really analog, but what about that (ha,ha, look at the price, and sounds like a moog) www.mfberlin.de I would buy it again.

Okay, um, so thanks for all the help! You guys are great. but in the end, the sound system seems way to much for me to handle. I was checking out the RAV4 President and it looks good too. But I am even thinking of going to one of those hybrid engine ones like the Toyota Prius. I think I saw something promising called the ION, but I never heard of the company before.

I got under the hood, saw how it works, added some auxiliary stuff, and took it for a test drive. Unbelieveable potential!!!!!! It was crusing far beyond the norm.
