It is alive and it wants to live and run free in the wind. It doesn't care if the paint on its nose is chipped up a bit or if it gets dirty or smelly or scares people by making a lot of noise.
Submit to its will and enjoy the ride, but don't try to pamper it with soap and water or it will die. Sideswipe one of those silly ricerfartmobiles once in awhile, too.

So much this, it really is a different animal. The clutch is stiff but not unlivable, the shift feel is heavy but precise, the turn in and steering for having 275s in the front is very responsive almost to the point of being twitchy. The acceleration is like a freight train it just goes doesn't matter what gear what rpm just torque the first time I put my foot in it I didn't even think it had even woken up but one look at the speedo...
The tires on it now fronts are Nitto N555 and the rears which are to be replaced soon are NT05r's so it really hooks up. Though as a car i'd like to drive regularly a utqg of... not joking 00 isn't going to cut it. Will sacrifice a little bit of that off the line traction for either pilot super sports or Nitto Invos I think although the Toyo proxes r888 are an attractive option as well.
Ahh man I do like the genV but I think the gen2 just has the best lines it really only shows it's age in the front fascia and headlights I think.
