AI Market Summary

Potent 503 hp engine delivers thrilling performance, but fuel economy reflects high power output — budget accordingly for petrol costs.
Median asking price sits fairly firm in market; comparable rivals offer better value if raw speed isn't priority.
Early 2021 cooling system failures documented, especially in traffic; inspect coolant condition and listen for unusual fan noise before purchase.
Carbon buildup on direct injection valves common — request full service history and consider preventative cleaning if not recently done.
Have dealer run full diagnostic scan for electrical faults (infotainment freezes, coding errors) — these can be expensive to resolve outside warranty.
