TO THE POINT What's New? 260 turbocharged horses, a sport-tuned suspension, subtle GXP visual treatment, a 0-60 mph time of about 5.5 seconds
Selling Points: Performance, style, price
Deal Breakers: Low-budget materials, manual transmission sometimes clunky
Our Advice: If you can get past iffy interior materials and build quality that's average at best, you'll have a blast smoking pricey rivals in your $26,995 GXP.
