I bought the car for two reasons: The claimed MPG and the price. I live more than forty miles from work, and I needed a car with better gas mileage than my Jeep Wrangler. I knew I would be driving the car almost exclusively for work, so gas mileage was a big selling point. I also did not want to break the bank, so this car seemed like a good fit. Outside of the gas mileage, the car is pretty nice. The interior is simple but clean, has the features I need without feeling like a cheap car.

I purchased this car when I was 18 from a Hyundai dealership. I liked the color (red), and how it seems rather sleek. I was not really a car guy, so I didn't know anything about cars and my Mom essentially just let the car salesman convince me on what to buy. The performance has been extremely reliable for the 9 years I've owned this car. It's currently at over 100,000 miles and still going strong, just needs regular oil changes and maintenance. I have not had any major issues outside of an electrical problem with my USB outlet and an issue where the A/C blower stops working entirely.
