I haven't driven one, actually. From what I've heard, they're torque monsters and THE definition of straightline performance.
Some people say they're bland to look at, but I think they have a minimalist/sleeper appeal to them.
I will agree that they don't attract attention like a 'vette does. Or a rex
Perhaps instead of sports car we should call it a "power car."
God bless America, but she stole the "b" from bless.
