Detailed review: |
I actually own the vehicle, I have had it for about 7 months now. I really enjoy the car, it has great potential to be super-fast and it's already pretty quick as it is. The handling is pretty good stock because of the rack-and pinion and the independent suspension. I get about 33 combo and up to 40-44 MPG on the highway with the Automatic Transmission. The Cargo room is perfect because I can fit my entire drumset, along with hardware and cymbals, in the car by lowering the rear folding seats. With all the equipment I have I can't seat more than two while loaded up, but I never need more than that anyway. I actually fit 2 drumsets once... The A/C is ice cold and cools the car quick, and the heat kicks in quickly and can make you sweat til you lose weight. I got an alarm system along with an ignition kill and got power locks installed. Tinted the windows and painted the grill black right above the bumper. The car almost looks like it has a body kit on the front and the ground clearance is almost that of a sports car. I think that headers and a good exhaust would give the car an extra kick and make it more fun to drive. A turbo would make it a speed machine! I indeed suggest the purchase of the vehicle and I love the Warranty. |
