To the naysayers, don't count it out yet.

Saw one here last week, not a bad looking car at all. I'd say I'd drive one as a commuter, but I'd have to test it first. I drove a Prius and a CR-Z and wouldn't have either one. Slow, sluggish and ill-handling the both of them.

note the torque curve starts at 0 mph to 6000, 300 ftlb, nice!

Sounds like it would be similar to my TDI Jetta than. Handling would probably kill it though. And this is the first European car I've owned, since I started fiddling around with it, there is touch of over all quality that is a good bit higher than and American or Japanese car I've owned.
