Unconventional, innovative, artistic - Chris Bangle dared to be different

The car is lighting fast; The twin turbo engine is one of the best on the planet and the manual trans is a dream; This is a sports car in a coupe body.

Impractical for adults for anything but short runs

Price or payments

When you add enough options you are approaching 3 series territory but still worth it
