By all accounts they're great drivers cars. I know that Kia/Hyundai had REALLY done a nice job with those dual scroll turbos that greatly reduce turbo lag and give you really nice power earlier in the power band than, say, GM was getting. You're not getting peak power at 1,200 RPM or anything, but it's WELL below the 5K you're seeing on a lot of other turbos.

So I'll bet that twin turbo V-6 is a DAMN fun engine.

EDIT:

Here's an example for sale of the one I was eyeballing:

I test drove a BMW 3 series several years ago and the turbo lag on their 4 cylinder models just killed me... putting the pedal to the floor on the highway and drinking a cup of coffee before there was any response at all. I wouldn't have even cared THAT much about lag at a light changing green, but in traffic is a totally different story.

Their inline 6s are night and day better (especially in sport mode, where it's keeping you in a slightly higher RPM).
