[Motor]

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/FullTests/articleId=120703
What Works:
Mind-bending acceleration, Velcro-like grip, confident balance, best ride/handling compromise of any supercar we've tested.

What Needs Work:
Hard-to-be-smooth shifter, no redline on tachometer, leaf-blower-in-a-shed cockpit racket.

Bottom Line:
The M400 combines blinding speed with superb handling at a level usually reserved for cars costing twice as much.

* 425-hp turbocharged V6
* 2,484-pound curb weight
* Six-speed transaxle with limited-slip differential
