Excellent choice.

Everything you read about the car is true: awesome performance right out of the box, easily modable with a plethora of aftermarket parts, and stiff/busy ride with lots of tire and transmission noise. Go-kart steering, blistering acceleration, unbelieveable cornering ability, yet practical enough to carry a family of four to the grocery store. So far, they have been pretty reliable with the exception of those people that have watched The Fast and the Furious too many times and try to use it as a drag car. That is a one-way ticket to a new clutch and a warranty claim denial.
