So I like to go out and test drive sprots cars every now and then..who doesn't? So I took it out, and the suspension was really good, but it had hardly any power, and the gears were kinda hard to find. The First to Second was hard cause the pooer wanted to pop to the center of the pattern everytime I shifted. Oh yeah..and to get it into reverse, you have to lift the shifter up first, and the take it far left and down. I know in an RX-8, you have to push down first, and I think that is cool, but lifting up was just retarded IMO. Not to mention that the rear visibility out the back window was horrid, and then at 55mph, that little spoiler pops up and makes it worse. A good burn out was almost impossible too. The guages weren't organised well, and the tach was way too small and hard to read. (black and funky white numbers with a white needle) Has anyone else driven one of these and been as dissapointed as I was? Lets here your opinions!!

:notnice:

 

i think that i am not suprised, thats my opinion

 

It's an overweight SLK. Go drive an SLK and compare.

 

I dont know if i can act that rich....but I'll sure try..

 

I know exactly what you mean. I went to test drive one last year, because I liked the looks of it, and was trying to buy an American vert. The gears were very hard to hit, the shifter was an absolute waste of engineering salary, and the cars performance made me feel like I had borrowed a friends accord. I was extremely dissapointed in DC's lack of effort in creating a competitive sports car. I didn't expect it to be everything, but I also didn't expect it to be only looks.
