Pros

Great agility (and self-confidence) for a car of this size
Passenger compartment on par with Buick or Lincoln
Tremendously smooth new Pentastar V6
The pleasure of rear-wheel drive
Features almost all of the latest technologies

Cons

Honestly, who likes that grille?
While we wait, it still has the five-speed automatic
Wide gaps between the exterior panels
For now, only the V8 version comes with AWD
