This one has changed my mind a bit. \r\n\r\nFor those who don't like the F1 transmission - it's indeed something different. If I want a stick-shift car to go romp around in, I have a few to choose from. My 360 is great because I can have fun with it when I want, but if I get a phone call, I can stuff it into \"auto\" mode and it will take care of everything itself.\r\n\r\nThe only downside to a car like this might be the fact that it's \"too nice\". One of the things I love about my 360 is the fact that it's not \"perfect\", and thus, I can drive it, and leave it overnight in my driveway, and park it in regular parking lots (off to the side) and not super stress about it.\r\n\r\nFor reference, here's a photo of my pozzi: https://secureservercdn.net/192.169.222.215/1b5.933.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/CA17_r0151_27.jpg\r\n\r\nRegardless of the price, the new owner is *not* likely to be disappointed - I've actually *never* seen this color before, it's subtle, yet cool, and pretty awesome.
