Vehicle only three months old but have found 0 build problems. I am 62 years old, so probably don't fit the 'normal' buying profile. I don't care! This car is a true hoot to drive. Goes like a bat and at this price point, it's a steal. Very decent ride and the performance tires REALLY grip the road in fast turns. No matter they will probably only last 15,000 miles.
Wanted one for a while, now.
It's all I expected and then some. The new Crystal White Pearl is gorgeous. Rides well, handles and brakes VERY well. Acceptable mileage since my other vehicle is a Dodge Ram. Love the auto A/C and wipers. Awesome torque! Practical as well, with the rear hatch. The audio system is superb. Anyone looking for a reasonably inexpensive and practical road rocket -- this is it.

3 is a hot little number
I've had a number of sports cars over the years, including Corvettes, M3s and others. This thing is in a class by itself in terms of the cost/benefit equation. For street driving, it will do 95% of what those other cars will do, and at half the price. It gives me a big smile each time I drive it, and think about how little money I paid for the performance I'm getting. Highly recommended.
Best of the best!!
The name said it all "Speed", it's fast, great handling, sexy body, this car got everything you need in a performance car. I put in a factory Cold Air Intake, my SPEED3 has about 300 horses. If you are looking for performance compact sport car, this is the only one.
Great Toy!
Wanted one since they came out. Was going to wait 'til spring '09, but this is the last year, so I jumped early. This car is phenomenal! Great power and handling. Not sorry I bought it. Acceptable mileage (it's not a sipper, but it does very well if driven gently). Very comfortable on a recent weekend trip, and the throttle response is amazing!
