It reminds me a lot of my previous M2 in terms of handling balance & turn in, while being easier to rotate, having more grip, and generally being able to carry more speed, and accelerate harder.
Your comparison of new vs used at more than twice the price definitely makes sense.

I suspect you're the type of guy I used to get point-bys from on track in my 1.6 Miata.
