Yes it's reliable
yes it's heavy
yes the in cabin engine noise is fake
No its not faster than M4
Yes It needs premium and get 13-14 city
Yes the heated/ ventilated seats suck
Yes Borla catback is best bang for the buck and sound

Great reply thanks. My LX gets 10 miles to the gallon so this is like an economy car 😜 I drive like an old man but I like having a V-8 engine. My last sports car was back in 2009 I had a 2008 Aston Martin Vantage with a souped up exhaust system on it it was fun could hear it, and two blocks away. After that I had a CLS 63 AMG it was a 2008 and I've had a bunch other sports cars but not in the last 4 years

No performance package. I think this one was one of the first ones built the Vin number is in the 400s and it was built November 2, 2014. But it is only driven an average of 300 miles a month and they oil and filter was changed every 3 to 4000 miles and it wasn't a lease it was personally owned. I think the guy was **** retentive ��. $54000.

Fantastic deal. I paid 58 for a '15 with only 1766 miles. super low. And **** isnt a bad thing ...when it comes to car care that is.

get the Borla exhaust for some real sound at affordable dollars.
i posted vids of mine. Enjoy your new car

Lol @ first 2 these things always come to mind. I thank you for the depreciation comment I'm crossing my finger on that. Did you guys notice that if you run KBB numbers for fun, the performance package doesn't seem to affect the car's value at all? As much as I already take that value with a grain of salt, now I really have to tack on extra $$$ just for that.

Welcome to the club. Congrats on your purchase. Not sure about the depression value, but I do know I'm not a fan of the Borla exhaust.
