The car is dead sexy to look at, and it draws comments everywhere it goes. That is, when it goes! Entry and egress are a bit difficult, but not too imposing, and once inside the leather seats are supportive and comfortable.
Those are the good points. The bad points are many!
The leather seats wore out fairly early. The leather door insert was soon to follow. The brakes squeal constantly, sometimes louder than other times. For a sporty car it takes a long time to stop. The trans is nothing, but a quagmire; it requires way too much maintenance and rebuilding at an early age. The shifter is a hunk of crap and will get caught between gears. It eats batteries. The paint's clearcoat flakes off all over, requiring annual repaints. And worst of all, the thirsty V6 barfs out gaskets at the drop of a hat! It is expensive getting them replaced all the time.
So why did I keep this car so long? I've got so much time and money in it that I have to keep it in order to recoup my investment. I wish I had never seen this car!
Good to look at, but I wish I'd never seen this car!
How can you say running costs is 1? You are saying its one of the most expensive cars to run... in the world?
Should've got a manual insteal of your slushbox auto.
