Great cars. I've had mine just over a year now and can safely say its the best car i've ever driven. Its pretty much as fast as any modern hot hatch type car, but weighs a lot less than most. This also gives the benefit of really agile handling for what is actually a fairly large car (for its weight), and pretty good fuel economy. Utterly reliable and practical. Might not be as involving as an Elise, but I can guarantee it will have a better engine than any Elise you can pick up for the same price as even a mint 98 spec JDM. I'd stick my neck on the line and say its likely to be the most fun you can have at the price short of an Elise, and ignore the FWD thing, it really isnt an issue - I rate it as a significantly better drivers car than a stock MR2 or MX5.

The best thing about them is it really is a jack of all trades. Its comfortable, but at the same time, focused. Its fast, but at the same time, economical. Its practical AND reliable. IMO it looks great and is a rare sight on the roads. It wont cost you the earth to run, and you WILL have a grin on your face every time the tacho homes in on that 9000 RPM mark, with the glorious soundtrack that accompanies it.
This says pretty much everything I would want to say!

Get one, now.
