Too many things, but I'm gonna go with an uncommon, yet initial thing I loved about it from a pure straight driving standpoint. I enjoy the power curve (flame suit on just in case). Having never driven a car with this kind of power delivery before, and currently a slow once past 50mph, yet smooth low end torque DD beater (140-170 tq from 2krpms to 3750rpms), I love jumping into a completely different, dual personality sports car. I can conserve gas and treat it like a 150hp, 5800rpm redline machine when I want or need to, or transform into a different, thrilling, loud, and quick rocket when I choose, keeping the RPMs at 5500
+ to 8000 consistently. I thought this would actually bother me when I got rid of my DD STI, and then my DD Mazdaspeed 6, but I still love it, and always will. This comes from having to drive through a traffic congested, populated city, and eventually find myself in rural areas the rest of the way.

Owners of other sports cars always being surprised by how quick it is at autocross, even with a slow driver

I like when I park her, I get out and immediately look back at the car, then I walk three steps, and look back again, then walk another twenty and look back one more time.

Then when I open the door and about to go in, I have to look back at her just one last time.
