Favorite feature: |
Seat returned to my preset spot after someone else drove the car. |
Least favorite feature: |
I have to be overly cautious when backing up due to headrest height |
Advice to buyer: |
Non turbo underpowered . I find myself speeding in the turbo a lot. |
Detailed review: |
Twin turbo has NO lag whatsoever. Very fast off the mark creating torque steer. The geartronic shifter made navigation in the snow storms easy and this car never got stuck even without snowtires. Backing up is a problem if you're under 5'7' as the front headrests are large. Great ventilation as the windows never fogged up in the bad weather. Good sound system. 5 memory seat settings is handy. Huge trunk. Hot air comes out in minutes even after a cold start. Lots of cup holders. Spatious, luxurious and comfortable. |
