The animal is home. I absolutely adore the engine and the sound it makes, the gearbox not so much. It's very slow witted, luckily the engine has enough grunt to overcome any gear that's thrown at it. I'm surprised by the grip in the dry, I'm assuming the wet will be more hilarious. Strangely the suspension is very hard, not what you'd expect from a Mercedes. It's ok, for a daily, but only just so. I think the GT3 in comfort setting is softer. Consumption is pretty appalling at the moment, but I assume once I stop downshifting just for the sake of it, it will settle around 14l/100km.

Definitely feels like a keeper this thing, and the combination with a GT3 is just perfect for me.
