| Likes: | Darts like a hummingbird; easy to drive at your limit (and nowhere near the STi's). Superbly stable, terrific brakes, slick 6-speed. Simple dash, comfortable seats, useful trunk. Cool red intake on 300-hp flat-four. |
| Gripes: | Giant rear wing distracting and magnet fro cops and boy racers. 3rd gear gate very narrow. Stereo lacks midrange. Thumpy suspension, intrusive road noise. Driver-controlled differential, intercooler spray invite enthusiastic throttle-pedal induced disaster. |
| Verdict: | Still the definitive 150mph pocket rocket - also good for shopping, unlike the EVO. Due for a redesign. Ugly grille does away in 2007. I'll take the "wing delete." |
