One of the things I really like about this car is the way it drives. It is, in my opinion, very smooth and I felt comfortable driving it from the very start. It seats five people so there was adequate room to carry people plus the trunk had a lot of space. Also I did like the body style - it was smooth. What I didn't like was the alternator kept going out and I had a lot of electrical issues. The CD player stopped working after a while for no apparent reason. Also had some power steering issues pretty frequently. Other than that, I felt that it was a great car for someone with a smaller budget.

I like the mileage and style, but the transmission problems remove any joy from owning the car. Unless it is a constant 60-90 degrees outside, the car performs poorly and it grinds all the time in cold weather.
