I'm glad you liked it - my little boy is still on cloud 9.

Wyatth, it felt it's size a little on some of the more tight twisty roads where you're always turning the wheel or hard on the brakes after a little squirt of power. It's certainly no Scud or GTO in that respect, but at the same time you're driving it and telling yourself it shouldn't be this good, and it makes you smile, a lot. I'd love to try it in the wet, because in the dry it seems pretty much RWD to me. I suspect the new 4WD system would be a revelation.

PS. Not ordered one, yet. I suspect this will be a fantastic used buy, especially as they'll generally clock up some mileage

Your wife seems knowledgeable and very comfortable discussing cars. Good work!

Thanks for the review. The exhaust is spine tingling!

Cool. Seems like this car really hits the nail on the head for what it is trying to accomplish - and that is NOT to compete or be as agile as the 458/GTO/Scud cars..

Big improvement IMO over the 612. And if it's pricing is anything like the 2+2s of past, then you are right in that it will be a great buy down the road a bit!

The exhaust is certainly intoxicating.

She didn't sound displeased at all - thankfully she didn't start crying and protesting.
