I wrote a review on it in the the general discussion section. If you are going to get one I would get a V-6 no matter what and it does tourque steer bad in first and a little in 2nd.

Other than that I think they are a good car. FWD though.

Basic bolt-ons will put you in the low 14s, possibly high 13s...
