What I loved about this car most was the 4 wheel drive feature. I also liked the interior comfortability, small steering wheel fit best in woman's hands, all controls close enough together to handle comfortably while driving. Car response time was impeccable. The car acceleration while entering highway was fantastic and the gas mileage was perfect for me. It was inexpensive to fill the tank and did not need much attention. No repairs were needed, just regular upkeep. The sound system was great too. My car was pearl-white in color which is a great alternative (living in the desert) to a pure white color that shows dust more easily. The style of the car overall was pretty. The interior was a beige color that soiled relatively easily even though I was very careful to keep it clean and the interior was material so dirt was not easy to clean at all, as vinyl or leather would have been. Overall it was a very comfortable car for the driver and passenger but the back seating seemed a little tight. It had enough room in the trunk, surprisingly for a car that size. Maybe they should have made the trunk smaller and the back seat bigger? I didn't notice any blind spots in the car, but the noise level could have been better. It wasn't horrible though - just "typical". You didn't have to "blast" the radio to tune out the outside noise though because the speaker system was sufficient for the size of the car. The car was fun to drive. I tinted the windows myself and personalized it a bit and it made the car a pleasure to drive, especially for work commute. Not only did the car accelerate beautifully, but the brakes worked great with little pressure and it handled so well. This car responded to what I instructed it to do. A real pleasure to drive and it made me feel as if I got my money's worth.
