Likely what those of us who commented should have been more clear on (at least for me) is it isn't about speed. Its about the lack of predictability of the throttle when you need it to be reliable. Across the spectrum of speed, its about being able to rely on the vehicle doing what you ask when you do. No matter how fast it does it. :-)
I agree. The car is wonderful in sport mode on up, but the other modes are tuned terribly. Very inconsistent and non linear.
