With regards to owning the car itself, think it finally hit me last evening when I took my friend out for a cruise. Her words as I pulled up to her driveway: "Holy crap, car looks so much better in person! It's so damn sexy!"

Also, I took her to the local hidden twisty. I learned when the brake assist kicks in, scared the crap out of me. Felt the pedal move forward on it's own. Also power-slid around a recommended low speed hairpin.

Yup, I definitely chose the right car/platform as my first sports car.
