Hi Juan, welcome to the forum. Take a look at "advice for new owners", the performance specs are well documented, so maybe ensure all the basics are good and then take you right foot for a ride. Enjoy!

Welcome Juan,  is it a six speed manual , or automatic / tiptronic ?   Coupe or cabriolet ?  

A six speed coupe should be plenty fast, that’s a very respectable amount of torque for the weight of the car .. It was never meant and geared to compete with the 0-60 mph hyped cars, but it’s not really “slow” in that segment either ..and once you get it to a rolling 20-30 mph and step on the gas in the right gear, it’ll pull pretty hard ..if the engine is in good shape .  A leak down test should indicate how strong  the engine is running now vs. factory specs .
