 After another 18,000 miles since last August when I wrote a review. Car is very reliable and keeps on going.  If power is your concern, do modifications as I said in my first review.  The cost is nominal and cost effective. Never felt the car was underpowered due to it's power band at low rmp, but if you modified as I did, you'll have performance, comfort, economy of an everyday go-kart car in high gas mkt.
