 A great car, wonderfully flexible and spacious interior, never felt claustrophobic like other cars in its class that I looked at (like Corolla, Matrix, Scion, Civic, etc.).  28 mpg average city-and-highway driving, and I drive in New York City.  Zippy handling, comfortable ride, a real pleasure to drive.  Why anyone who wants a small car buys anything else is beyond me.  This car is a great bargain and completely reliable.
