Argh!

After owning a trouble-free Nissan Sentra for 8 yrs, this car is very disappointing. I only got rid of the Nissan because it wouldn't pass my state's emission test. Rides like a dump truck, has no "get up and go", has surprisingly poor fuel economy & is very noisy (lots of air noise coming from the windows). This problem became more apparent after my son shut all four fingers in the door at the top & his only response was a calm "oh...my hand is shut in the door." But I'm stuck with it for the next 5 years, since I owe more on it than it's worth. Also found out that it had been wrecked. Live & learn. Spend $15 & get a Carfax report before you buy.

Mirage The Best

I use the car for long distance travelling (around 140 Miles a day). Excellent handelling on highways plus really good on gas. It gives me around 33/gal. Fun to drive. But little too light. Good turning circle. Most liked feature is the gears can be used as a manual transmisstion to some extent. All 4 levels can be manually controlled.

Cute but Sensitive to Road Conditions

The car is cute and perfect for commuting to/from work or even for professional mom's. It was a great deal for a used car but I quickly realized that the car lost it's appeal on me when I noticed how sensitive the wheels were to the road. If anyone's driven on CA-580 knows the road is full of potholes, cracks, and whatever else. You must have a steady hand and heart to drive this lightweight car around the Bay Area. The car is sensitive to high winds while driving on bridges and overpasses and obviously will slip and slide all over the place when the road is not in the best shape.

I can't figure out why people don't like it. It's reliable and crisp to drive. It's good looking. I just LOVE it.
