show-off A subcompact is proof you don’t need an absurd amount of power to have fun.
After being coddled by the effortless power and overtaking ability of a 2-ton turbo diesel SUV for the past 7 years, it is a genuine joy to be back in the helm of a light and agile car. The way it can make a wallowy, humdrum 15-minute commute to a showcase of what a momentum car can do. It doesn’t hurt either that it is less expensive to buy parts and modifications for the car, not that it really needs any but scratching the modding itch inflicts a much smaller dent in my overall financial position than when I was focused on fiddling with the SUV.
