So in anticipation of the full specs being revealed on Monday 18th October, I thought some of you might be interested in reading about the customer event some of us owners were invited to a couple of weeks ago: http://www.auto-journals.com/features/238

Of course it's difficult judging the driving characteristics of a car from the passenger seat, but John Barker's First Drive review in this month's evo (150) backs up my impression that the handling has been massively improved.

And to get a sub 8 minute p-ride with Toshio Suzuki was an experience I shall never forget! bow
