==Performance==
The [[Imponte]] Ruiner is powered by a 7.3L (450ci) V8, coupled to a high-performance 5 speed gearbox in RWD configuration. Acceleration is very good, close to cars with a much higher price tag; its top speed is also quite good, brisk, yet controllable. The suspension is moderately firm, giving the Ruiner much needed grip in the turns, while still loose enough to have some fun with. Handling-wise, the Ruiner is a stellar performer: constant grip, very little oversteer, and a lot of torque. Braking is very good, if not the best in class, and ABS comes standard. Crash deformation is acceptable, but not great; the Ruiner can be disabled after only a few crashes (primarily due to its speedy nature) . Overall, it's a thrill to drive, and well suited for applications where no more than two people need transportation.
