I've driven one, had one for 2 weeks when i was in the USA.
DON'T go for the 3.5 V6. Its gutless, drinks silly amounts when booting it, but saying that, with the Auto 4 speed box, 4th gear, 100mph, it was revving at about 2000rpm Great car for cruising long distances. But u'd have to knock it down manually if you wanted to pick up any speed.
Managed to drive for 13 hours in 1 day, and didn't have a sore ass, or back.
Stearing was rediculasly light. When we got back in Donnas old Corsa C SXi, I thought the tyres had gone down/flat as it was so heavy... It turned in quite well, although wouldn't want to drive it into corners fast.
Good cars, great rep cars, but I wouldn't buy one (Unless its the 400bhp V8 twin turbo jobbie....).
2184 miles in 2 weeks...
Twas a beast, a big big car, but when driving it, it didn't seem so big. Easy to move around..

tbh, the 3.5 V6 (we had that model) had far "acceleration" than an 8v SRi Corsa. Its VERY sluggish, but it does get moving.

When i was in America 2 years ago i kept on seeing the estate version, i thought it was cool as fuck, but didn't have a fucking clue what it was and thought we'll never get them in the uk!
Then i saw it on top gear!
I really like them, i always think it's a bently coming towards me! I think it is a bit of a bentley wannabe but it's a fucking good one, and if i was looking for a luxury barge i would be looking for one of them!

I like them. 
Probably very safe in an accident.
In silver, or black in particular, with the mesh grille and big rims they do look lovely.
Estate version is a very cool car too.
I'd have one.
