Sounds pretty mean but not sure if I'm sold on the looks. Videos are worth watching.

Here's one link. you can nav to others once on the site.

this car looks really good. i really wish they would have brought out a coupe version. nobody loves the two door coupe anymore. everything is four door now. the car really sounds great and according to some of the articles i have read it handles like a champ. i really considered waiting and buying one but i wanted an AMG and i wanted a coupe. i do love how muscular and low the car looks from the factory. all cars should come off the showroom floor looking like that.

sounds like airplane
i read that it doesn't quite have the performance you might expect from the looks- particularly the transmission and brakes.
