"Four wheel disk brakes and headlight flasher are solid advances....."

"Four wheel disk brakes best brakes in Australia - close to best in the world."

"no objective reason why anyone would buy the Hardtop over the cheaper sedan."

Super light power steering disappointing, manual steering needs muscle.

"Manual GT reaches 60 mph in 8.1s (8.7 auto)"

11 mpg to16 mpg

16.0 s average for quarter mile.
