Looked at one of these today, thinking about taking it out for a test drive but interested to hear your thoughts/views on the car first! LOL
Looking for a bit of a 'stealth mobile', nothing that's gonna attract unwanted attention when it's sat on the drive, 'cos I'm a bit gutted at the mo, due to having had my Impreza STi stolen from said driveway!
Can't risk another STi for obvious reasons & can't risk anything similar, e.g. an Evo, Skyline etc. & not a Beemer fan, so scratching head a bit at the mo!
Haven't had anything front wheel drive for a while now, 2.4 seems a lot of engine for a low bodyweight front wheel drive car, is torque steer etc. a major problem?
Also, 8.4 secs 0-60 time doesn't seem that quick, have I looked up the figures wrong maybe?
Love to hear any views on the handling mainly & I'll be taking it everywhere & doing a lot of mileage in it, so it's gotta be as well-behaved in town traffic as out in the country or on a fast A road, just as my scoob was!
Cheers guys!
