I loved driving this TR6, it's super smooth and fun to drive. There's none of the very common rear end clunking found here. The monza exhaust has that sweet sporty deep sound with the occasion off-throttle pops. It can be on the louder side for some folk. The straight six engine is peppy and encourages spirited driving, the over drive is great to have for highway driving. No ticks or smoke to be found, fires right up and doesn't skip a beat. Gearbox operates smoothly and engages all gears smooth. Doors close and open good. Side windows go up / down like butter. The driver's seat foam can use some work for aesthetics, still comfortable to drive. The tachometer needle is bouncy at times. Tires are from 2011. Some dry spots on the sidewall. There are some bubbles on the hood pad.
