Maybe I need to drive one because everybody is wet over them, but I don't see how a car in its price range - which ain't small - with only 200 hp that professes to be a sports sedan can be THAT good :p

Don't test drive it...I'm telling you that right now :) It does actually has less HP than the Millenia (210HP), but was insanely fun to drive (admittedly a big part of that was the fact that it was manual). The engine just has a nice linear power band, the engine revs up nicely, the car handles really well, and the car is just incredibly well put together. The interior is really nice. Everything about the car is smooth and precise. I also like how the car is somewhat unassuming when you look at it...yet so fun to drive when you push it.

Also, I'm a little over 6'4" and I didn't think I would fit well into the car...but no, it felt great...no problems here at all.
