Not Impressed, but hey....
Its a nice car, decent for the price. But quite disappointing also.
In the few short months that we have had it, the rear lip had to be put back on after starting to slip off due to the cheapo double-sided sticky crap that they used to attach it. They could have used something a little more stable.
The rotors are already rusting (the silver painted parts), where the ones on our other car that we painted ourselves (silver - looks the same as the MSP) have lasted 2+ years with no peeling or rusting.
Also, we have had the "flash" upgrade and although it got rid of most of the hesitation that we experienced in the beginning - it still hesitates. And we don't really notice more power at any point. But I guess if you had hesitation before and none after its going to feel more powerful.
The "snap your head back in the seat" that I expected in the test drive was totally not there, but I like that in 5th you can still feel it pull. Hopefully after some modification the levels of torque will be more noticeable. Sorry, but I want to feel it in the butt-dyno.
And my only interior complaint is that there is no clock unless the radio/cd is off. (unless one of you guys have figured out something I haven't)
Don't get me wrong, its a nice car and I like it. But, for being a brand new car, I sure have my complaints. We could have spend 5000 on a fixer-upper and spent the other 15K making it.... well you get the picture. Still nice to have all the "new car" ammenities, nothing like that new car smell
