This car was fantastic. Goes like stink, handled like it was on rails, Looked amazing, a real head turner. However . . . . Build quality wasn't the best. A few bits of interior trim would often fall off & it had quite a few electrical faults. I mainly put that down to the rubbish mechanics at lloyd bmw. Wouldn't trust them to change a tyre! It wasn't the cheapest car to own. set of four tyres was about £2k Cost of servising was also Mental. Mpg wasn't too bad, on a long motorway run i averaged 35 mpg, Put your foot down & you could easily average about 9. I was paying about £2500 insurance. So it isn't cheap. But if you can afford afford the costs, Worth every penny! An amazing car.

Pros — Power, handling, comfort, Looks
Cons — Costs!

Best all around everyday car for the sports car minded.  
PROS: Great looks, great acceleration, extremely responsive and everyday driveable.  No fuss to own and can seat up to 4 people and carry a lot of cargo.  SMG transmission is the perfect blend of sporty technology and convenience.  CONS: 21mpg average, higher repairs costs.

Pros — Great looks, great acceleration, extremely responsive and everyday driveable.
Cons — 21mpg average, higher repairs costs

Perfomance:- Very quick, handling the best I have experienced, Brakes need sorting but with a modification they are great.
Build Quality:- Very good as you would expect
Appearance:- Looks very mean and agressive
Cost of ownership:- About as cheap as it gets for this perfomance and it does 30mpg on a run!
Fun Factor:- One of the best cars I have driven and the best one I have owned.

Pros — Noise and Handling
Cons — None
