You said it is unsuitable for highways, I don't consider vehicles that go the speed limit on the highway unsuitable for it. Unsuitable for motorcycle enthusiasts? Probably.

No prizes here for guessing that you're not into cars or motorbikes.

Define "into". My car goes 230 km/h and I have driven that speed...once, maybe twice. Does not mean I don't enjoy accelerating up curvy mountain roads.

If my future car has the same acceleration but is limited to 140 km/h, I wouldn't care that much.

Lets put it this way... are you going to buy one?

This one? Unlikely, but not because of the 130 km/h limit but because of the price. I consider motorcycles unpractical and unsafe for daily use, so the only use would be for fun. I would love one for sunny days but they have to get cheaper.
