A guy I work with has one. I dont like how they look.

rented one from enterprise last year, took it on a 900 mile trip.

I had no problems with the way it handled, but it did look like a kiddy car. If you're buying, you might want to think about the image you're giving in 3 year's time when you're pulling into the lot at work with a car like that.

but aside from the looks, it was a pretty fun car to drive. Handled going 90 - 110 for long stretches of time with no problem. I ended up slowing down after getting passed on the right when I was going 110 and the guy passing was at least 20 mph faster than me.

I'd rather drive a used Toyota Matrix, Pontiac Vibe, or, a Scion xB - oh wait, I do!

My girlfriend has a 2002 Sedan model. It's great for ripping around in the city, great on gas, decent zip to it. It's by no means fancy but definitely great for the price.

Doesn't it have a 150hp motor or something? Pretty decent and it looks neat. Better then any SCION

I especially like this quote:

Ugly doesn't begin to describe it.

How much does it cost in the configuration you're looking at?

 

[JoPh]

prolly could argure the dealer to 10k out the door for a 2005 lx fully loaded.

dealers are having lots of rebate sales now.

config comes to like 17k
