I actually had a '09 Sedan automatic. As stated above definitely try and find a manual as it will come with Recaro seats which is a must if you track or autocross the car. I didn't mind the auto it shifted fast enough for autocross and straight line pulls. However watch the revs because once the LSA hits boost it's gone! If you're not worried about fuel consumption then then get it. If your using it as a daily plan on weekly fill ups depending on miles driven a day. At the end of the day it is a Supercharged 6.2L V8!

Here's one of my only summer events in the car.

Nice vid, looks like PPIR. I lived in Denver/Golden for 10 years. The roads there were amazing and spoiled me. I was on a kick for a while where my goal was to ride 500 miles a week...such good riding out there.
