    Nice article, we have heard the complaints about the disconnected steering feel earlier(http://www.spykerowner.com/forum/spy...html#post11530). I would really like to read a test with the 6 speed manual gearbox

        Please not that all the media about the Aileron is based on a Pre- Production car and not a final spec one. They often forget to mention that doing there drive, and it is a drive not a "Test" of the vehicle.

          Yes I know but therefore, isn't it better to let them wait to drive one when it is 'ready'? (knowing they have bad memories when it comes to these kind of things)

            As a loyal Car and Driver reader for 24 years, I can tell you that Car and Driver seems to have a policy of indicating in any preview drive if the car they drove is a preprodction model or a production car. They often do make a point of noting that they expect the production cars to have adjustments made, and even will qualify their judgements on a car until they conduct a full and proper road test of a series production example. I would hope that other magazines would do the same.

            The magazines will do these brief test drives before the production cars are "ready" because they want to get the earliest scoop possible, and they know that car buffs like us are dying for the lastest news and views on the upcoming models. Especially ones that maybe we can't afford!
