Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's wonderful the drive with the noise from the v6 sounding lovely with the slight change when the variable intake kicks in. The gear changes are nice and quick with the short shift box. The power from the engine means you can cruise easily as it will pull in any gear and when you drop it you get a great kick when you go. The ride is quite harsh but still comfortable enough when driving about town but once you get onto the country roads it get better as you speed up and the handling is precise and well balanced being able to feel the grip you have even in the wet.
What's it like to park?
It's not the easiest to park as it's quite long with the wing not helping reversing but does allow you the easily see the rear edges of the car.
