The power of the engine from the silky six-speed manual transmission.
Least favorite feature:
Torque steer.
Advice to buyer:
Purchase the six-speed version with the stickier tread.
Detailed review:
At every speed, the car has power to spare. It is very easy to find yourself doing well over the speed limit because the car effortlessly accelerates (and does so with little noise). The car is simply a joy to drive (ignoring the torque steer when accelerating quickly while making a right turn out of the shopping center into traffic).
