towing is just fine...

[twixt]

i towed my sportbike on a ~200pound trailer so that is like 600 pounds with 3 ~150 pound people in the car 117 miles each way. the car drove on the highway just fine, in the city and on ramps, braking was reduced of course and acceleration was less but overall you barely could tell the trailer was there. the engine never struggled beside large hills but it does that without a trailer. i was very impressed by this car as a tow vehicle and will be building a new smaller trailer to tow my bike. also im going to get a small tranny cooler just so make sure i dont hurt anything.
