I must say this has been the best car I have ever owned. It has been well taken care of, when I purchased it had 57k miles, all service records are up to date. I am very impressed thus far. I would have to agree that visibility is lacking, but performance is great, and interior is greatly designed, there is lots of leg room in the back. Great for long trips to the beach.

This car hums. It drives beautifully in city and highway, with effortless automatic shifting. It's also an eye turner.

Beautiful car, nice ride, great head turning ratio. My biggest complaint is the am radio. Horrible reception!! I have had it fixed 4 times and had a new part installed to try and fix this. This becomes very annoying...and it gets worse when I plug in my cell phone.

Terrible radio. Cumbersome to use, reception is the worst I have ever had in 50 years of driving. Turning circle too wide. Service is expensive at dealer, I get apprehensive when the bill is prepared. I wish I could get those billing rates. Memory seat has amnesia or Alzheimers. Trip computer needs a timer.

I was looking for a safe and roomy vehicle. I have experience that and much more. I have had no mechanical or electrical issues. I have only had to take it in for it's check up every 7500 miles. It has been comfortable, reliable and more than I ever expected.
