When buying a performance car, shouldn't performance be #1?

This car is by far the fastest of it's pony siblings. Even in a v6 it's faster than a 5.7L v8 challenger, and almost as fast as a v8 camaro. Hundreds of pounds lighter. Takes off ramps like a race car.

That said you can't go wrong with this model year in terms of eye appeal because thats nearly as important for this car segment.

Dual exhaust, forward leaning profile, rear drive, sequential rear turn signals, horse logos that light up the ground when you approach it at night. It doesn't get any better.

As for practicality... one of the most visible sight lines through a rear window I've seen in any car, let alone sports cars. Engine quiets down for a a highway cruise but remains aggressive with the windows down while accelerating.

Easily handles rain and bad weather conditions with the regular season tires. If anything I feel safer due to it's high performance breaks and wide tire tread for wet weather grip.

Last note if you look at the interior compared to it's competition it's a hands down weather. Paying more for a cheap plastic interior in a slower sports car just doesn't make sense.
