We have two of them. I hope they continue. They are just wonderful. Probably don't check the boxes for those with a heavy right foot, but for the rest of us, they are just dandy, and they have enough scoot for us.

Yes, but it has 295 foot pounds of torque. I found the D to be more engaging that the 2.8i for most all my driving. If you are going to track the car, then its probably different. And getting 44 mpg on the hiway at 62 mph is just wonderful.
