I like how the car handles on the road. It is also a nice car as far as style and options at a reasonable price. Options I have include a Bose sound system and heated seats among others. I know a fps is available. The dash is large and easy to see. Repairs have been infrequent and affordable. This car gets great gas mileage. It is easy to maneuver around corners and easy to park. It is high enough to comfortably get in and out of. The downside is that the interior cabin seems small. There just isn't much legroom and if you get a car seat or 2 in there it starts to feel pretty crammed. I also don't feel like the backseat gets enough airflow. It always seems stuffy and cooler or hotter than the front seat. There also isn't much storage. An oddly shaped glove box and arm rest compartment are about it. I haven't checked out the cx 9 yet but, I think some of these issues may be addressed in that model. My final concern is street noise. I hear a lot of noise when driving. Getting new, upgraded tires helped some with the road noise but, I do wish the cabin was just quieter in general. Overall I am very happy with this vehicle and would purchase another one when the time comes.
