Moar driving impressions:
I rike it. It's deceptively fast. In the Mazda, full throttle meant hold on to your ass with one hand and the wheel with the other. Even in a straight line, your instinct told you to LIFT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. In this thing it's like "oh, so that's 80. I should probably lift". It was easy to not speed in the Speed3 (like 10,000 spoooons) but I'm definitely gonna have to watch myself.
I really hope I can fix the sunroof and not have to eliminate it. Auto open, auto close, it's really easy to work. Too bad it leaks!
I also have noticed a noise from the rear when making sharp (60deg+) right hand turns. I s'pose I should price out wheel bearings....
