That FWD box is far from even a decent sports sedan. Thank heavens i don't watch much TV, all kinds of preposterous rubbish going around.

I drove the one before for many miles and the engine (though torquey) was an absolute bitch (unrefined and sounded like an appliance), the handling was mediocre too.
