great little car However they forgot to make it comforable. Poor springing in seats. road bumps transfer to driver giving rough ride. A little better design in these areas and they would have a true winner

Contrary to Edmunds' review, this car is a bled of sport, and prticality. It handles resonably enough especially after repacing the Goodyear rsa tires with toyo proxes 4. Its fuel economy is good. The styling in and out is great, an easy car to live with. The top and windows go down with one push of the button.exhaust note is sporty. Its not super fast but it does go and the engine has great torque. Its not bad in the snow either. The body integrity is much better than Chrysler Sebring or Mustang which I have had. It has some trade offs as an all out sports car but you get is a tight car, decent handling and acceleration, good looks, space for and occational passenger and good quality. I reccomend this car.
Great

I love this car it was my dream car... It was all i expected - fast, stylish, and an eye catcher. I often bumped curbs but other than that it was great - never had a problem brought it at 52000miles. The only thing i had to do is get a new battery at 79000 miles.
A complete Money Pit.

Hmm. How can I start.. Within 13,000 miles I had transmission troubles that the dealership had no idea how to fix until 6 months later. At 35,000 miles the transmission had to be replaced completely, since there were massive amounts of metal shards in the fluid. At 45,000 miles the car shook. Took it in for a brake job but the dealer said it was just the rotors so I would be good for a few months before I would need to actually pay for any work.. 2 weeks later I was on interstate 95 and had ZERO brakes. Yeah, I said ZERO. Used "e-brake" to make it to the dealers. Dealer wanted $850 for a new caliper. LOL! PS. if you REALLY want this car, buy a big warranty.
