 This is an excellent car - quick, fairly comfortable, great handling and incredible mileage (36 hwy).  But, if you're older, like me, it's a pain to get into and out of due to the low roof line.  Also, it is hard to load and unload the trunk because of the smallish opening.  However, it does have a big trunk.  And the back seats are really roomy, nice.  Did I mention it's kinda noisy - as bad as my Outback.  But, hoo baby, this car moves!  And I never tried the sport setting on the transmission.
