agreed. I'd love to rock one of these as a DD if they were a little bit cheaper and/or if I had more room to park vehicles.

Poor suspension design. Would be a lovely DD, though.

I almost got a blue one, but when I went to test drive on in Manassas Park, the steering wheel and seats had been jacked from it a few days earlier. The owner still tried to sell it to me. lol.
