I think I could get away with the emotional support one nowadays.

Dang, but that was a lot of release videos to get through.
Ran out of popcorn at 1:23pm.

Eyes started crossing up so I rotated tires today then dove back into youtube.

I watched about 4 of them, then got bored with it because they were all basically the same give or take one of these items.
  • Here's the new car.
  • The old car was great but the engine sucked even though we loved it when we first drove it and got on that bandwagon later.
  • The torque dip is gone, well mostly.
  • The exterior changes are OK but nothing to write home about, but at least the vents mostly work.
  • The interior is much better but is no Lexus.
  • The engine sounds great, but who can really tell since the sound is fake.
  • It drives as good or better than the old car.
  • Overall, it's an incremental improvement and we are glad they made it since this will likely be the last car of this type.
  • Oh, and its slow for a modern car but we can justify it because at least its not as slow as the last one.

I look forward to real reviews once the car is out.

I'll admit, I skipped the walk arounds after the first couple.
Skipped to the driving impressions if there were any.

There was giggling.

Yea, there was also giggling in 2012, before it became "the thing" to complain about the power.
