Maybe it's just the contrast after driving a 1986 CRX HF (read: 63 hp), but I found the ION to have more than enough power. About a month after purchase, I took a 930-mile marathon road trip. There were a few mountain passes in my way, and i had no trouble blasting uphill with the A/C on full. The variable power steering, while a bit touchy at times, really turns to a rail at about 90. The price can't be beat: I'm spending as much on my purchase as most people spend on a lease. And based on other peoples' experiences with this company, I expect to be driving this car for a decade or more.

The transmission is lacking power & performance. A possible bearing in the frontend is knocking. The body doesn't match up like it should. Something in the doors is scratching the glass. The dealership has looked at & tried to repair these things, but wants someone from the manufacturer to look at it. This may be in the first week or two of September.

I bought this car in april. I was pleasantly surprised this vehicle. I still like it 8500 miles later. It has good performance, comfort, and convenience considery it's economy car class. It's alot of car for what you pay for it and it's practical and fun to drive. I drove a honda civic as well, and this car blows it away. Lots more power and interior room (i'm 6' 3" and have plenty of head and leg room).
