You left out:
1. To get the advertised 0-60 time acceleration time, you need to use launch control. If you use launch control, you have to turn VDC off. If you turn VDC off, warranty is voided.
2. The tranny costs US $20,000 to replace (about 25% the cost of the new car).
3. If the clutch needs replacement from wear, you need to replace the whole tranny. Cost = 20k.
4. Owners are now questioning the reliability of the tranny.
5. Problem with wheel hop.
6. Variable power delivery depending on countries and cars. Like a lottery.
7. Tires that probably will need replacement every 5000 miles.

Everything points to a heavy car (near 4000 lbs!), designed to be cheap, with not enough consideration for reliability or long term customers' satisfaction. And I agree, it's ugly beyond belief.
