Not had it serviced yet, no costs to date.

On the road
Driving
Very easy to drive fast. Bags of grip, could do with a bit more power. Superb in the wet. My old 200sx was faster in the dry though (and a lot trickier in the wet).
Performance
Great grip, stunning cornering, could do with an extra 50bhp.

Living with it
Reliability
Fine so far, though suspect there are some electrical gremlins out there waiting to get me.
Image
Sometimes I'm pleased it looks like a shopping trolley, sometimes I'm not. Old 200sx had much more attitude, if you like that sort of thing. Xenon headlights are great though.
Comfort
Bit noisy on the motorway but otherwise limo-like in the big heated leather seats.
