When I test drove it, I could tell immediately that this was a high-quality vehicle. The feel and sense of it made me decide to buy it rather than a Chevy Cobalt. Upon driving it, I was pleased with my purchase. It has automatic traction control, a great sound system including MP3 play capability , economy driving automatic, satellite radio, anti-skid braking, and other features. At first I had to get used to the way it handled on the road. It was slightly different than my old Cavalier. But I grew on it, and it grew on me. I took the car on some long road trips, west, south, east and north. The car was a pleasure to drive. The fuel economy is between 30-35 MPG, better on the highway. The 2.0 liter engine is fast from a standstill. One drawback might be that it is a lighter car, so is easily buffeted by winds and by passing semis. But I can live with that. At 124,000 miles the car is still performing well.
