Interesting that the author, in discussing the styling, makes references to comic books, Samurai, Transformers, and hero masks.

He apparently recognizes the present fad for cartoon-esque styling seen on so many modern cars.

That was a very good review, hit the strengths (and lack of weaknesses) of both cars. Enjoyable and informational read.

It *is* sorta nice to read a car review where they actually talk about the cars and are not fixated on A) tire smoke and throttle induced oversteer and B) one car being fantastic because it goes 0-60 in 3.982 seconds and the other is a piece of crap because it goes 0-60 in 4.003 seconds

Well, I'm dramatizing a bit, but you get the idea

Cheers
