Default Long Term 180F update in new Motor Trend

Not very enlightening - they like it more than they thought they would, they like the tranny ("just the right amount of notchiness"), and they said the engine "could very well be the best 4 banger on the planet." Definately not worth the 3 or 4 bucks for the mag, although there is a test drive of the 911 Turbo in there (anyone hear tonight's NY Lotto #'s yet?)

I've been away but don't see that this has been brought up. If it has, feel free to flame me because I'm probably tanner than you are :^)
