i don't know what your friend is smoking, but my family has 2 lesabres (93 and 96) and they are about the slowest damned things i have ever driven. they are built for comfort, not racing. the transmissions are intentionally sluggish, there's no throttle response, and it's almost funny how as the rpm's go up the car goes nowhere. you've got nothing to worry about.

No, don't do that.

Instead, take out two spark plugs.

Then smoke him.
