  This car is reliable and overall low maintenance, the car pulls like a V8. there is a lot of low end torque and no turbo lag. The last 3 years I have replaced the tires, water pump, thermostat, front brake pads and rotors, radiator and battery. I did the oil change every 5,000 until I recently hit 80,000 miles, now I do the oil change every 3,000 miles because it has twin turbos and it burns oil quicker. The handling and the and the acceleration are its best features, the brakes are excellent as well, I like it because it is very fast and maneuvers extremely well in traffic. What i dislike is that sometimes the coils go bad while driving and it starts misfiring, aslo it runs really hot and the cooling system is weak. Be ready to regularly change coils and rear tires, other than that it is a great value
