Gonna have to tilt your head! :laugh:

Tilted head or not.... Thx Jimble :smiley:

Good review (even with the annoying Clarkson nuances) although mine won't be coming with ACC, which everybody seems to rate highly. I just can't amend my order again... can I :undecided:

Or just tilt and zoom on my tablet! ;)

Nice review, and pretty much every reason why I ordered one in the first place.

You can say that again, faster than:

SL55 AMG, Golf R32, Focus RS, Audi TT V6, BMW M3, Honda NSX Type R, Subaru Impreza STI, to name but a few  :shocked:

I'm assuming some of those times will have been wet laps.

Looks like not as there seems to be a w for the wet laps. Amazing lap time, even beats the Golf W12 if you use the 1.29.5 time!
