However, I'm still waiting for a chance to go on a proper test drive with the engine warmed up and using the full RPM range.
Aside from that, I thought the car was nice from what I could tell - interior was fine, seats comfy, a good size, nice looking exterior, slick and precise shifter feel. I have a red base model on order, just hoping I'll be satisfied by the throttle response without needing to tune and void warranty.

Of course, it’ll come down to preferences. When I keep the rpm high, the slow response isn’t an issue. It’s only when I mess up heel & toe that I get surprised by the slow to rev nature. In a sense, I’m appreciating the extra challenge!
