A great drive.

Beautiful, smooth V6. Surprises when pushed given the size of the car. Nice sound at higher revs.

Living with it
Reliability
Regular (12 monthly) ignition coil failures which is extremely annoying as all six need replacement. Stereo suffers very loud pops which dealer is incapable of sorting out (probably indicative of electrical fault causing coil failiures?)
Image
Pininfarina - say no more.
Comfort
Great, even for the rear passengers. Suspension a nice compromise between firmness and comfort.

Immobiliser and deadlocks seem to do the job just fine.

Not impressed with dealer service who seem indifferent when problems occur.
