Anyway, 9/10 is very high for Top Gear. FWIW: Code:
6-7/10 STI 7/10 Megane RS265 Trophy 9/10 GTI 8/10 Civic R 7-8/10 Miata 7/10 RX8 5/10 MS3 7-8/10 EVO 7-8/10 Mini 7-9/10 3series 8/10 M3 8-9/10 Cayman 7-8/10 370z My expectations are high for the test drive. Either this is going to knock my socks off, or it's going to be a "phantom menace" caliber letdown. Last edited by Deslock; 05-11-2012 at 09:15 AM. |

Just another check in a box as far as I'm concerned. I think I've read too many reviews, they all seem to be saying the same thing.
Although now having driven the FR-S, I can't say my review would be any different. Blah blah, rewarding car to drive, blah blah, barely usable rear seats, blah blah, need to rev the engine, blah blah, corners flat, blah blah rear end slides out ...oh wait that's actually kind of fun |

Good read. I can't wait for them to get one on the show.
Hopefully Clarkson will have the same reaction to it as he did the RX-8. Though they might have one of the other two drive it. Jezza will like it but want more POWAHH! Capt. Slow will think it's great fun, but the 'Ring tuned suspension will kill it for him. Hamster will love it, but say a used 911 is a better buy. |

This makes it real hard to try and wait it out for a possible STI version down the road. I cant wait for the phone call regarding the test drive.
