 Grip, a fist full.  Punch this car in the mouth and it takes it. I drive hard. It takes it as well as any honda or toyota. Yes I did have a cracked pre-cat to fix at 4000 miles but nothing is perfect. these things happen. The warranty took care of it.  When you get a new car, drive her hard.  Get the kinks out.  I'm extremely pleased.  9000 miles so far.
