Very reliable and roomy car.

This car is my daughters car and it?s been exceptional for her. Not a single problem with it ever. Very roomy interior. Lots of leg room in the front and back.

Great Vehicle

This car has so much more room than you would think! It can accommodate 5 people plus their luggage comfortably. The sound system is great and there are so many cup holders. It drives nicely and has a good amount of power for a 4 cyl. however it does not do well in windy areas. The design is boxy so when the wind hits it, it moves it quite easily. There is also a bit of road noise when driving, it's not quite but it's not bothersome. I just turn the radio up!

Great on gas and reliable.

GREAT ON GAS. Roomie for my kids in the back seat. $45 to fill up my gas tank, and I drive from La Puente to Los Angeles, and the tank will last me 5days.

Lots of room with a unique look

It's a little larger than your average compact but has enough space to make it feel like it's a small SUV without all the bulk. It handles pretty well but it is a tad bit top-heavy and the mpg is not too bad either.

Good family car

My family has had two of these over the years. While not attractive they are roomy and get the job done. If well maintained they last forever.

Great, Reliable, and Cheap!!

There are many reasons as to why this car is so great, One being how much room you have as the driver and the passenger of the vehicle. what makes it even better is that the people in the back seat have great room as well. The trunk you can definitely fit a whole house full of groceries in. And this car has excellent gas mileage! Probably one of the best I have ever owned!

Pretty Nice

I love the interior design. My exterior is a Dark Blue and the interior is all black. I love the black rims and the window tint(even though now I attract more cops). The pioneer radio and sound system is loud, you can hear it outside the car. Only thing I really do not care for is the box shape of the car. However, it has a lot of room inside!
