I had one Premium Plus in yellow with aero kit. Discarded it after 5 months. Steering was robotic, build quality was horrible, the whole car creaked, rattled and groaned. After 3 months all 4 brake discs warped and once they were fixed the drive shaft seal disintegrated and destroyed that shaft. All on a brand new car.
I found it soulless with a dull engine note and OTT pops and bangs that sounded so fake (and I LOVE POPS AND BANGS USUALLY). Its also nearly 180 kilos heavier than the Type R.
I then bought an FK8.... The car is in a different league the shitty Mercedes doesn't even deserve to breath in the FK8's exhaust fumes.
Wow that is poor and people moan about brake squeal on an FK8!
I have heard a number of moans about that car included launched gearboxes and them being weak.
