Default Additional comments to above...

Further to my comments above..

- Free 3 month trial to SiriusXM...IMO, it's lame. Constantly 'surfing' through junk to find anything decent. Prefer the music on my IPod.

- Paddle shifting isn't all that great. Now I know why most folks spring for 6 speeds. In auto it's kinda slow out of the hole unless you get on the gas and the engine's powerband doesn't really suit the shiftpoints the tranny picks; in 'manual' it's tough (for me anyway) to get it to shift smoothly.

- Still curious. Where I am 370s are few and far between. Why is that?
Do the dealers not get many of them because there's poor demand for them?
Are there other cars at the same pricepoint that people opt for over 370s?

- I'm not sure what I expected in the beginning, but 370s are sports cars. (duh) The ride is firm, the steering real responsive, almost overly-so. They're veritable go karts. For some reason that isn't what I expected. I guess I thought they would be more 'sedate'. It's been 37 years since I last owned a sports car.

I've now got 1500-ish kms on mine now. (That's about 900 miles to the rest of you guys)
