 I have had this vehicle for two years 
now.  It's not a bad little car 
overall.  I'm a chronically single 
computer geek, so the 'embarrassment in 
front of potential in-laws' clause 
doesn't apply to me. :) I like my life.
 I don't have issues with the styling, 
so I'm not going to comment on it.  
When I bought this car, my objectives 
were to get the cheapest possible car 
vs. potential durability.  I like to 
think I achieved that by getting the 
cheapest model from a very reputable 
car maker.
 The basic model was sufficient for me: 
no cd player, no side-beam air bags, 
and etc.  Besides it's great for a fat 
person on a budget (like me!).
