Nark Forums Junkie Location: Cabramatta, NSW Registered: May 2002	Impressions Tue, 09 November 2004 02:55 OK. Impressions after a week. Good: * Chassis is brilliant. Very well balanced. And very stiff. * Very responsive engine. Great mid-corner punch! * Extremely comfortable. Great NVH levels. * The brakes! Bad: * The engine sounds like a tractor. Damn Subaru engines. * The understeer sux. In the Celica, I can accelerate before the apex and have the nose tuck in as I'm going through, not so with this car! Damn 4WDs. I have to learn to take a 4WD line. * Suspension can get a bit floaty sometimes around corners (but I think it's because I'm used to rock hard suspension). * Can't see the boot! * Can't turn traction control off. I tiny little gripe is that I'd like the electric seats to have memory settings. Each time we have a drive swap, we have to adjust the seat again and it takes ages. But that's being picky and complaining about the fact that I have electric seats... hehe All in all, I'm very happy with the car. If only it was RWD and had tuned length headers (to remove the thump thump thump exhaust). You can't get a better all-round sports sedan under $100k IMO. [EDIT: The reason I can't turn traction control off is because I don't have it! Also, a major gripe I missed was that the steering sux. There's absolutely no feel to it.] [Updated on: Wed, 10 November 2004 03:27] [Report message to a moderator]
