I've logged a couple of thousand miles on my '16 so I think I can leave some reasonably constructive comments.

I like the exterior design save for the wheels. In the photos the stock wheels look underwhelming, and in person... they still look underwhelming. But I really hate aftermarket wheels since most of them scream boy racer hella ghey.

The motor isn't bad, but it isn't special either. It's just okay. It's not as smooth and exotic sounding as my previous RX8 and it surely doesn't pull like my previous 350Z, but I like to think of it as the little engine that could. At least it gets pretty decent gas mileage.

As far as creature comforts I like the rear back up camera and the touchscreen interface (new for '16 models). It's intuitive and easy to use. The sound system is good enough.

Driver enjoyment is where this car excels. With the TRD exhaust, this car is super fun to wind out. I love redlining it everyday on my commute to and from work. I also like the fact that you don't see very many in my area. It's to the point when I actually do see one, I do a double take and give a friendly driver nod regardless of who's driving.
