I was on a road trip for combined personal and business events and took the Si. As before, this is an amazing road trip vehicle!
I stayed with my friend one of the nights. He owns a 2014 Lotus Evora. I let him drive the Si and then I drove the Evora. His thoughts (my words):
- Shocked by how good the handling is and in particular how flat the Si corners
- Pleasantly surprised by the acceleration, especially in the heart of the torque curve
- Not a fan of the steering in either normal or sport. Feels way too artificial.
If you're curious, my thoughts on the Evora:
- Loved the induction noise! Intake is right by your left ear.
- Pedal box is tight! I flubbed a shift or two with my big feet.
- Surprisingly compliant ride.
