Adequate car
I think this car is fine, nothing special. My ex wife picked it out because she thought it was "cute". The mileage seems fine to me. I was able to drive my kids to Disneyland in it, and it made it the whole way. Other cars I have owned, if I took a trip that long something would surely have gone wrong. I actually took it to get inspected before the trip, and they said everything was fine. I was skeptical, but we made it back in one piece. There were no flats. I was able to travel at high speed much of the time. It is not my top preference for a car, and I won't get the same kind when I get another, but it's totally fine.

Adequate car
Mechanically, I have no complaints. The vehicle has never broken down, and I've never had to change a tire. I take it in for regular maintenance and oil changes and have not had to have many significant repairs beyond that. I did have to get the tires replaced, but it was after quite a while. My ex wife chose the car because it was "cute," which is not a concern of mine, and I wouldn't buy the car again. My priorities for a car are safety, fuel economy, and price. It does fine on all these measures, but it is not the top of any of them. On the negative, I find it a little bulky, it's hard to park in smaller spots sometimes. It also does not have cruise control, which I found to be a valuable feature in a car I owned before, as it kept me from driving too fast. Finally, and I know this is a problem with most modern vehicles, but I find the idea of a "spare tire" to be extremely stupid. Why doesn't it just come with a full-sized tire? If you got a flat, you have to change, it, drive to a shop, wait a day or two for the tire to get fixed, so annoying. With a full-sized spare, I just change it, order another full-sized spare, and pick it up when it's ready.
