Yes, that supercharged 6.2 liter just pulled and pulled. I did not have a chance to drive on any real twisty roads, but what I did drive on the handling was good, given the size and weight of the car. It was very comparable to driving a German performance sedan. No rattles or wind noise, very planted and stable, no nervous feeling in the back and no wheel hop. All those things happened in the previous generation. That one felt like a big engine was stuffed in the car as an afterthought. This latest version felt like it was designed from the start to have the big powerful engine and its all integrated together. Only issue on this one is the basic warranty is over and its not certified. Checking the V sites, I have not found any big issues or items going bad on them though. So looks like minimal warranty repairs so far.
