This is one of the most comfortable, easy to drive cars I've ever owned. It maneuvers beautifully and I am always comfortable with turns in this vehicle, despite its size. The interior is easy to maintain and spacious. My daughter has plenty of room in the back and likes riding in it. I love the way the car looks on the outside and inside. There's plenty of trunk space as well. It has never broken down on me but I take it for regular tune ups every 3 months. I get decent mileage from the gas in the car as well. I have yet to pay to have the car repaired so can't talk about repair costs but maintenance costs are reasonable. No noises in the engine or abnormal distractions while driving at all. I always enjoy driving this car. It handles beautifully and accelerates very well. I always feel safe in it. It's quite the sturdy vehicle. The car is a little larger than regular vehicles of its size so parking can be difficult sometimes. I don't always find a good spot and I don't know if it is the car itself or me but I am not good at parallel parking in this vehicle.
