IMO they've pretty well killed the car for me and I'm a HUGE fan of the car. It makes me really sad.
I thought about selling as well but we have a 60k/5yr powertrain warranty. My thinking is that the car is a a sunk cost already, selling it now will = huge loss. Might as well send it hard in the next 4 years and hope it blows. If not, it will not likely blow at all. If it does blow up, you get a new engine anyways. But i guess with the strong used car prices, you can still make it out ok at this time but having said that, i do believe this gravy train is coming to an end quickly.

I agree, I love this car (love the Gen1 car as well but Gen2 just completes the package with the added power) but this really takes away from the ownership experience. There is really nothing on the market quite like it so no direct replacement even if i sold it (another reason for me to send it harder in the next 5 years).
