I wasn't interested first time around, but really want one now.
I guess it's taken a decade for the world to catch up to the design. Goofy headlights gone, decent price for the specs, useful onboard solar, looks good in non-white.
Given the stated performance, I'd view it as a daily eco sports car that out performs a 86/MX5 for similar money, and with a bigger boot (than the MX5).
Narrow body means no more parking lot dings and scuffs. Do your shopping and come back to a car with more fuel than when you arrived
It won't sell well of course because people are afraid of anything even the slightest bit different.
I also really like their 'right to repair' policy.
