The standard Feroci is powered by a 3-liter V6, coupled to a 5 speed gearbox in RWD configuration. Acceleration is acceptable, but not exceptional. Top speed is adequate, but again, not exciting. Handling is good for this sort of car, but it comes at a cost for ride quality. Its firm suspension tune jars over every bump, making this car quite uncomfortable. Braking is acceptable, and ABS is available but not standard. Crash deformation is acceptable, and the engine can sustain many direct hits before catching fire.

The Feroci JDM VIP possesses a slightly higher-revving engine, giving it a faster off-the-line acceleration than the standard model.  Top speed has been upgraded as well, to a brisk and enjoyable pace. Handling has also been upgraded, keeping the car flat and level in the corners, while the suspension has been firmed up slightly. Braking is very good, and ABS is standard. Crash deformation and engine resilience remain the same.
