It draws my attention, I could not care less if it's not attractive to someone else.

^^^^^^

Yep could not agree more. Drive the car you like, not the car everyone else likes. I noticed less strangers randomly approach me to ask about my car than when I first bought it, but who really cares. All that matters is I still love the car and think it looks/drives great.

I think this will be a classic little car in the coming decades. Not sure if it will stay in production, but who cares... I love this car. It is sporty, but doesn't try too hard. Having it in World Rally Blue doesn't hurt either. Hehe. I get a compliment every now and then, but hey....I bought it for my enjoyment.

I got a random "thumbs up" on I-77 saturday, and later that day had the owner of a Mclaren P1 comment, "I bet it's fun to drive". So yeah, I think it still turns heads.

i also get lots of annoyed looks from pedestrians, since she's so loud.
