The VERY sporty, racy looks - Interior & especially the exterior. The RED panel readout is so cool!
Least favorite feature:
Power door locks don't automatically lock once the car is in motion.
Advice to buyer:
Get it - and do it NOW! Get the XR and get it FULLY LOADED ~ You will LOVE IT!
Detailed review:
This little car hugs the road wonderfully. Steering is solid and has got nice tight brakes. The driving position gives you a good commanding view of the road as well. I don't experience problems with wind noise which is great - even with the sun/moonroof opened up. This is definitely a sporty ride and the fuel efficiency is good too. Be prepared for lots of looks in this lil' baby -It's looks (especially in the RED XR) are amazing... You are a celebrity all of a sudden! ENJOY!!
