I have had the car for one month and driven about 350 miles so this review is based on a limited time period.

Rear seating may be a bit tight for larger/taller types but still good.Trunk is also a bit small but fine for a single person like me.I have nothing bad to say about this car. I love the way it handles especially on curves, braking is good . Road noise is maybe a little on high side but I'm listening to music anyway. The nav system is quirky but you get used to it. I wanted something under 25K and I am very happy with my purchase. I have had it just a month so I'll update if any changes. UPDATE FEB. 2017 So I have had the car for a few months and still love it. For those wondering about trunk space, I recently went to IKEA and bought a 8ft tall 20" wide bookcase and was able to get it back to my house by reclining front seat and sliding it in. I have also hauled 2' x 8' foam sections the same way. In November I had the car packed with party supplies and had no problems.
