Thanks Tom. Yes, it's tough getting into "regular" cars after driving these. When we did World Class Driving last month we drove back home in a Toyota Yaris. I almost cried.

Man, doing shit like this would make it too hard for me to go back to driving run-of-the-mill cars. Very nice review and the photography really shows how beautiful the car actually is.

Thanks Vinay. The 40 hp bump is really nice and you can't ignore the 15% increase in torque, since the previous model was obviously lacking. A little more would have been nice, but you don't want to overpower it either (I never thought I'd say that.)

The color was called "Blue Sapphire," and was part of their Contemporary color package, so it cost an extra $750. The interior is called "Sahara Tan" and was matching (both leather and alcantara.)

Nice Review. It's a beautiful car. The new wheels look nice. I agree that the it should have been more than a 40 hp bump. What was the name of this color?
