My my it's so quiet at that speed but honestly that is really dangerous imo on what looks to be a slightly busy intersection.

Entirely too fast. At first I thought they were on an interstate. Impressive RPM range at that speed though. What was that 3500?

i agree, a very bad (and stupid?) way to test how quiet the car is at that speed

Yes, it is that quiet. Fastest I've pushed the car is 95 mph (100+ mph in Cali means felony and impound if caught) and it was like driving at 30 mph: eerily quiet and buttery smooth...
