 The gas mileage is great - 44 mpg 
overall, including 60-70% freeway at 70 
mph.  Penalty if over 70 mph.  More 
like 50 mpg at 50 mph on secondary 
roads.  Quiet at any speed, and 
quietest at traffic lights.  Great 
sound system (partly because of the 
quiet ride).  Other than great mileage, 
this car is simply fun and easy to 
drive.  Visibility is tremendous, easy 
and responsive steering, very nimble 
and easily parked.  Great for short 
errands OR long trips - you just arrive 
refreshed, which cannot be said for 
many other vehicles.
