I agree.............they have maintained the essence of true sports car but the handling sadly remains skittish.

If Jeremy Clarkson read this, he'd be the first to ask if it still bongs every time you do anything with the car. At least that's what I remember from the previous Top Gear review of it on YT.

Bolt a super charger on the 6.3 monster. They are near the point of useless power though, because unless they go AWD the rear wheels will just roast off.
