    I hear a lot of negativity from a lot of people who probably don’t even own one!!! I’m a proud owner of a 2020 Corsair and absolutely love it!!! I loved it since I saw it and special ordered one infinite black with a special beyond blue leather package and the reserve ii trim package…it’s beautiful and luxurious…it soaks up the road…I’ve seen comments about the ride and I think if these idiots only test drove one they left it in excite drive mode which tightens up the suspension and handling, I leave mine in normal and it floats!!! And it doesn’t make any noise, the cabin is completely isolated…except if you punch it you will hear the turbo kick in nicely

    Bought a 22 Corsair Reserve with every available option, the OTD on the Monroney was 57.5K. It had only 10.6k on the odometer and was too good of a deal to pass up, I payed under 36K. Simply put, this the nicest,safest and most fun to drive vehicle I have ever owned. With the larger engine 295HP it has tons of power readily available and IMO the handling is more Audi, BMW or MBZ like. Interior wise its gorgeous.
