I think its a great car so far. Better yet, drop $1000 at Accelerated Response Motoring and get yourself an Abbott Racing-tuned Trionic box and a sport exhaust from them - should be good for 30 to 40 hp or more... European Car did a recent review of the Abbott package... pretty darned cool! -Justin
