260 HP vs. a 182RG's 235HP and it's
UNDERPOWERED?


UNDERPOWERED FOR THE AIRFRAME. 100 HP is
more than enough for an Ercoupe, but certainly not enough
for a 210. Now stop this **** and
just admit the Commander (sans turbo) is a slowpoke!



Of course it's a slowpoke, and we posted the reason. Enough horsepower
to gain speed to match an A36 would impair the overall utility of the
airplane.

Your statement that "HP isn't the factor" after calling the airplane
underpowered is still silly.
