 Favorite feature:

The Engine, it loves being in the high RPM range.

 Least favorite feature:

Sound System, cheap feel of the steering wheel

 Advice to buyer:

Definately invest in the 5 spd, much more resposnive than the automatic.

 Detailed review:

I LOVE This car! It's quiet, spacious, and its engine is all about high RPM's. This little car asks a little, but gives a lot. I bought the 5 spd manual, and this car is zippy. The interior is solid, my only complaint is that the steering wheel feels cheap, but that's it. And the sound system is somewhat lacking. But other than that I have been extremely pleased with the performance this car has, it has a better power to weight ratio, and more horespower than the equivalent Civic and Corolla, and can beat them off the line every time.
