Well I just took it for a right and proper 'product knowledge' test ride. What a frickin ripper!
The car moves, just flat out motivates. But traditional torque steer is def noticeable once it starts to put the power to the ground. Under power you can feel it delivering most power to the right front wheel which makes it difficult to keep straight.

HOLY COW!!! $29K??? That's not bad at all!! Although I really thought they were gonna be AWD.. :down:

It is sharp though, love the interior!
 
Awd would be nicer. No moonroof no nav you're $1500 better.
And if you just want a base one no need for St2 package, drop another $2500.
So base ripper price is $24k. It's a different kind of power delivery obviously but I think it would be right next to a Mustang Gt? Maybe? 270lbs of torque and a lighter car? Ford does make many awd cars. I think it's only a matter of time before this one is available in it.

As soon as COBB tuning gets ahold of one, you'd need plenty of money into your Mustang GT to keep up.. :beerchug:
 
There's a few driving around here. They really are awesome looking cars, but Ford dropped the ball by not going AWD and going after the STi and Evo crowd
 
Are you an American or a Korean?:poke:

You forgot Japanese also....and not to mention dik.

You sir are a person who when sits upon an icecream cone, is able to identify the flavor....
Savy?
Smartazz....

So, that being said, are you riding the American Hayabusa with all the American aftermarket goodies attached????

$for$ the veloster turbo is similar in performance, has a whole lot more tech and standard features, gets 30-38 mpg and has a killer warranty and better resale value.

These look very appealing... But style wise the subaru is better style And AWD... So many choices and so little money. :(

You got me on that. I was just poking fun at you, I drive a GMC but it's the first American car I have owned!
