I don't see any "beating to death" To me it doesn't look like the car was abused at all, but rather driven to it's potential.

hmm.... i'd say he did exactly what an automotive journalist should do when writing a review on a performance car, that one isn't a press car for nothing, its supposed to have it's neck ringed by everyone that wants a piece

I heard him say 43k but I think he meant 83k
Nice video, but I don't think at all it was abused. Only driven as any car being test-driven for a magazine/report would be. I liked it when he said the car doesn't like to go 55. LOL!

As far as the price, $43K is correct. Dealers are marking them up, but nowhere near $83K. Eventually the price will settle back to the $43K sticker.
