A dream of a car in a 15 year old package.
Love it. Lots of fun. Very fast and quick. Handles very well. Looks great. Gas mileage is not great. . . 16-18. Repairs are very expensive. Very comfortable to drive. The seats adjust in every which way and are heated and air conditioned. It is 15 years old but has just about every accessory and extra imaginable. Beautiful color that they do not use anymore. It is a beige-gold-sand combination.

Drives great. Is fast. Handles fantastic. Looks great. It's fun... Do not like gas mileage and repair expense..
