Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Awsome! Its only 2nd to the Turbo. It'll do 180mph. It has 4 wheel drive. So bye bye to all those Evo's and Impreza's that can only do 155mph!
What's it like to park?
Hard to start with, the back end sticks out a bit, i just use my door mirrors.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The Ceramic brakes always squeel after a long drive. Which is normal, but annoying.
What's most practical about your car?
Not much, it wont seat 2 adults in the back. But i dont think it was built to carry people.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The Sports Exhaust. Its is switchable so i can put it on loud or quiet. The baffles in the exhaust open or close electronically.
