MA Need MA/CT Owner for Comparison Test

I just bought an 04 and it feels like I've got some sluggish acceleration going on during hard acceleration. I'm not sure though as this is the only 8 I've driven. I might just not be used to the rotary engine. So I'm looking for someone from Mass/Ct preferably Western Mass/North CT to test drive my car and help me diagnose the problem if any. Anyone game?

Hey thanks man I really appreciate it. How long have you owned your 8? Have you ever driven any others? All I really need is a comparison test drive to see if there is any noticeable acceleration difference.

Just got the car, not exactly sure how the previous owner drove it. But I definitely will be redlining.
