exactly... Everyone is in a different financial position, and this car is accessible for a number of different people. For some $25k is play money - for other's it's more of a struggle.


Personally, I took my car out for a "drive" with my driving buddies around some of Austin & the Hill Country's finest driving roads after I hit the 1k mile mark. I got all kinds of rock chips & little dings from rocks being kicked up.

All my friends asked me if I was upset? nah...

I was enjoying the car & what it was meant to do. But at the same time, I'm not going to be stupid and park it in places where it's more likely to get scratched/dinged/etc... I take pride in whatever car I'm driving & despite my cavalier attitude during a "drive", I don't want unnecessary scratches/dings - shit just looks janky...
