Is it normally aspirated or turbo/supercharged? The high pitch whines and low pitched farts are irritating.

Big, big turbo on a 2.0 four... Sound vaguely like one of these:

To think I was going to trade in my Giulietta QV for this POS. I'm utterly sad.

Figures. Who approved this. I reckon if you don't have to change gears and keep the boost low, you're golden. Otherwise, car ruined imho.

It probably has all sorts of variable intake trickery to combat turbo lag, but you're not going to get 250kW out of a 2 litre 4-pot without strapping a fairly substantial turbo to it.

Still, it's sure to be a cracking car, and I'd hazard most every naysayer would wet their pants just a little bit if someone had to dangle a set of keys in front of them

Doesn't mean I'd buy one...
