Over here it is a lot cheaper so I gain financially (medium term). I love the added driveability and power is nice but far from my main objective.
Also as far fetched it may seem to a (US?) car forum, I actually care that it reduces my carbon footprint a little bit and provides some form of alternative (far from the best but still). Owning a car is my biggest impact, otherwise I live in a small house with geothermal heating, bike shortish distances quite a lot, eat mostly vegetarian and avoid unecessary flights. As for satisfying my driving hobby, this car combo has a very high fun to impact ratio, and suprisingly practical/usable to boot
Please no flaming, not judging anyone here, just want to show what a wide public this car has
