1. Too expensive new.
2. Poor performance compared to the Porsche equivalent.
3. Auto only.
4. Poor reliability reputation.
5. Too heavy in the US version. 342 lbs heavier than the EU version according to Car and Driver.
TBH, I think that I could get over everything but the last bit. The weight difference is awful, and it starts at the frame. Why bother at that point? All the compromises of a lightweight car without the actual lightness.
