You are right about that. I actually love the looks of the Viggen, and the fact that it is a hatch is a big selling point for me when I am looking for a new, practical, yet sporty car. Though I enjoy C&D, I can't really see how the Lexus IS300 beat out the Viggen. I drove that car and felt cramped in it. It's interior seemed as cheap as the Subaru WRX's.
