 It is the most boring car I have ever driven and I have driven many cars.I traded a 2007 Mini Cooper for this dreadful vehicle.It's a huge effort to pass a car in front of me - it doesn't want to; its automatic transmission shifts first up, then down, then up again around 30 miles per hour on an un-level street; it has terrifying brakes that lock up; it won't track over 60 miles per hour (constantly fighting the steering wheel to keep the car in a straight line - very tiring); no comfortable place for my feet.I absolutely hate everything about it, except for the gas mileage - and yes, that's very good.I recommend new car buyers to steer clear of this one.Get a Mini Cooper instead.
