Thanks to @ollie63amg for lending us the car, so what an animal of a car, I was actually rather surprised about how well this car kept itself straight, after hearing about all the stories on the internet about how they are so dangerous and tail happy!
So will I be getting one? Not sure, lets wait and see.

Its not a future classic because so many were produced, the ‘black edition’ however, that’s another story.

@@Tom-tz2jz I disagree - the iconic 6.2 engine will make it a very sought after future classic, particularly as everything transitions to all-electric. Look how many Subaru Impreza's were produced - future classic? Definitely

Came here to say the same thats not normal, mine only pops in s/s+ manual if you really wind it up then coast off throttle to slow down, which isn't how you would normally drive it. As has been said that's a pants map with the extra pops and bangs option ticked lol Drive a stock one or one with a decent map that just sorts throttle opening restrictions etc

@@gemberss as a mechanic you're only ever going to see the ones that go bad, so I guarantee for every 10 he sees with oil pan leaks there are 200 running without oil pan leaks, it's about perspective. I have many friends that have them and I own one myself, no oil leaks at all. Yes they drink oil, it's a 6.2L V8 that runs very hot so oil consumption will happen. My advice, get one and enjoy the massive grin on your face every time you turn the key

@@zacwilliams457 i agree on some parts, but he’s not only a mechanic. He’s an inspector and one of the best in the country. He sees 100’s of cars every day, he also has orher friends in different shops and when he says something i trust him. I usually ask him about cars that i want to buy and always bring him with me whenever i buy something. He said they have a problem, but the biggest concern was they drink oil. I do however love this car so for me i wont care about the oil consumption part that much. The only reason i haven’t bought this yet is simply because i can’t afford to spend so much gas every week. Gas in sweden is expensive as fk! Top 5-10 in the world.

Just goes to show if you buy a semi well maintained car they will take very good care of you.
