I test drove one, and it wasn’t too bad. The driving position is kind of like sitting in a barber’s chair, which I was not really fond of. Manual transmission feel was decent. Suspension feel was surprisingly good.

Two things made me not buy one:

1. They would not deal on the price.
2. When I attempted a heel-toe downshift coming off an exit ramp, the thing actually shut off. That was a bizarre experience.
