In an attempt to generate opinions of new vehicles entering the market for consumers, I thought it would be interesting to see what people think of many of the incoming models, or maybe those that were simply revised. I'll try to create one of these threads on a somewhat regular basis. You are more than welcome to express any opinion you have in regards to the subject vehicle.

Having driven the previous MS3, I judge my opinion based on that driving experience. And I must say, the car was sensational.
I can understand the controversy with the pseudo-smile that the frond end has; the animadversion is widespread. I think it adds a personality to it

It looks like shit. And in all honesty they added more weight so its not any faster than the previous MS3. I wouldnt buy this. Cobalt SS/TC if I had to buy new.

liked the previous ones better.
if i had gotten an MS3 instead of the MS6, I'd probably still have it.
and from what I can tell, more weight with the same amount of power = not a good idea.
