Best car I've ever owned

I bought this car because I loved the looks, but I've grown to love it for many other reasons. I've had it almost 3 years without even one minor defect or repair, which is important because I keep cars for at least 10 years. Can't say that about the Benz & Accrura I've owned. The interior design and utility is top notch. Very roomy back seat and rear cargo compartment. Excellent handling and parking around the city. Ample power. Overall I can honestly say its the best car I've ever owned.
Surprisingly excellent car

Not one minor thing has gone wrong with this car in the 4 years I have owned it. It is now one year out of warranty and I have paid $.00 for repairs. Superb for driving around the city; very easy to maneuver in traffic and park. Good on highway. Handles and corners like a sports car. Brilliant interior design - very flexible and spacious. Fit and finish better than my former Mercedes Benz 300E. It is still fun to own and gets much favorable attention. Very easy to enter and exit; good seating position for people with back problems.

My First American Car

I fell in love with the styling, read all the automotive magazine reviews and found an early model for sale in Florida while visiting my dad. I bought the car without a test drive, and was actually worried that maybe I wouldn't like it as much as the reviewers did. No fear, I love this car, for its versatility, driving ease, and comfort. Had it now 5 years and no problems - none. Still tight and solid feeling. Poor gas milage (22mpg average) is my only complaint. I hope that I can keep it another 5 years, but worry a bit about long term reliability issues of most American cars. It is not a German car but certainly better than I expected.
I've given it all she's got captain!

At first I loved this car, I 've had it for 2 years and I stay on top of it's maintenance. My biggest complaint is a common one; fuel economy (20-) and performance. Another major factor is its complete inability to drive in the snow (Connecticut). The power to weight ratio just doesn't work. It strains at highway speeds, especially uphill. It's a good looking vehicle with lots of functional space but I wouldn't buy it again without some design changes.
Great Car
