The turbo lag was obvious. The turbo boost really kicked in 3rd gear over 3000 rpms. I ran it several times from a complete stop. It was really pretty slow off the line in 1st and 2nd gear. It was avery apparent when the turbo started kicking in.
I agree the car has good power once the turbo kicks in and I prefer the seats and room compared to the 330, but it really didn't handle like I expected either. The torque steer, the wheels spinning out of control. At least for the convertible, it felt short of a sports car, but it was nice on the highway.
