At the moment I don't think test drive is possible unless you are actually buying it. There just aren't any available as far as I know, with each dealership expecting one or two units coming in for September. Most of these are reserved.
It's a great daily driver - comfortable, practical with quite a bit of cargo volume, decent feature list, reasonable good fuel mileage (9.4L/100km so far with AC on 90% of the time). I would have no trouble driving it on a road trip (ie. Wife won't complain the car is too loud or the ride is too firm, etc).
Haven't driven on a track yet but in the few occasions where I was able to go a bit faster through certain turns, it feels great and seems like the limit is very high and it's very confidence inspiring. It can do over 1g after all.
Turbo lag can be felt but only very little. It pulls hard as suggested by its 108mph 1/4 mile trap speed. Despite putting down 300lb ft to the front wheels, torque steer is nonexistent.
Brakes squeal sometimes when close to a complete stop but the feel is great and it's progressive and firm. Road test results show it had the shortest braking distance in its class.
Shifter is pure Honda quality with accurate, clearly defined slots and a short throw. I would say though my s2000 has even shorter throw and feels even better.
