Driving
Selespeed does take a lot of getting used to. But once you think "Just let the car do what it wants" and forget what she's doing, it all happens smoothly.
Performance
Wow.

Living with it
Reliability
To date, no problems. Thank God it has the 3 year warranty as there is more to go wrong on it than a Merc S class!

There are so few on the road so no one knows what they are. In the few months I've had it, people stop me on the street to ask me about it.
Comfort
Leather seats a must. Not as many adjustments as would have liked.
