WE LIKE |
Excellent cruising refinement
Roomy and comfortable cabin
Known quantity in luxury circles

|
WE DON'T LIKE |
Exterior's redesign safer than interior's
No breakthrough in cabin packaging
Handling less impressive than the ride

From Torque May 2009 issue

|
|
|
Modifying cars with spoilers, wheels, exhausts is a lost cause – not as if we can go very fast anyway - No, it's not about the speed, it's the thrill of the project (64%)
- Yes, buy a fast car in the first place (36%)
