 i work out of my car and spend alot of time in it. 40k,yrthat being said, i am 6 1, 230 lbs, and this has alot more room than any other car in its class.seriously.i looked at accord and camry, but if you spend 2 minutes in this car you will LOVE IT.again tons of room, a slap shift when you want power.it get 30 mpg at the pump.ive gotten 39mpg on a long road trip. the engine is quiet, it is very comfortable, it doesn't look like a grandma mobile, i carry 3 duffel bags of medical supplies in the trunk with room to spare. and it has a 5 star crash rating.its alot cheaper then its copetition.but, you will notice a difference in build quality.nothing substancial though
