I had a 2018 that I bought new. It was the 6 speed manual and I liked the sportiness, performance, relative comfort for my commutes and 600+mile drives in it. It had room for the whole family and adults could sit in the back comfortably. It was incredible in the snow and ice with Michelin winter tires on it.

I owned it for 4 years, put a few hundred miles shourt of 100,000 miles on it and sold it for $3000 less than I paid.

I did not like the road noise, there was a tuning issue with it that was finally resolved (I was the first in North America to get the new tune) that resulted in it spending months at the dealer, and I think it was starting to use coolant in the last 2500 miles - the dealer said 'no'. I didnt want to own it off warranty so put it up for sale. i was tired of tire kickers and dealer calling so I decided to keep it and then out of the blue a guy showed up and made an offer I could not refuse.

If I could do it all over again, I would.

I know the new version is a bit bigger and has a bit more power than mine.
