I think it's spot on. It is the best of both worlds when it comes to luxury and sportiness. It may not be trying to be a spaceship like some rivals.

I was surprised by how much it draws non-car people’s attention. Most people can’t name the model but they know it’s something special. It's a rolling art piece.

The most unexpected thing for me was that it’s so good for road trips. It’s quiet, comfortable and big enough to store luggage. It's a proper grand tourer.

I didn’t think I’d be using the sport mode as much as I do. I use it even for just quick trips to the store, because it makes the car come alive.
