This car does not like to start after sitting for long periods of time. after sitting for 6-8 hours I attempt to start the vehicle and the starter just keeps kicking without actually starting the engine. After the first failed start attempt the car kicks over on the second attempt, sometimes with a rough idle. I checked my spark plugs and they are not fouled, checked the fuse box everything is straight. I want to assume that the vehicle is not getting proper fuel into the engine to start it. So this brand new car needs to be primed after sitting a few hours. I wanted a retro style car without the retro way of getting it to crank over. one day when my battery gets weaker I can see it really being detrimental to the operation of this car.
