Basically paying the premium because its a "sleeper".

Would rather pay alot less and buy an SRi-T or a Coupe Turbo tbh.

i could see the appeal for maybe 5% of the time on a sunday morning when you want to punish ///M3 owners, but all the rest of the time i would feel conned.

driving to work, interviews, taking family or friends or GF's out? why not just get the whole hog!

A lot of money for watch is basically a boring looking car with a decent engine.

The problem with cars that have nothing going for them other than speed is it soon gets boring, you can only drive fast a small amount of the time - the rest of the time your driving a boring silver astra
