It's fast, it's expensive, I love it and they can't drive it
Likes: fast, comfortable, fun to drive, good gas mileage for the type of car Dislikes; low to the ground No complaints. Would buy it again. It has the most wonderful leather interior; still smells like a new car

Smile on your face
We bought it last year a great decision. Likes: Gas mileage on highway (30+) Comfort is like a recliner. Leather smell still strong. View is great you can the fenders to better judge the road Gauges clear, computer is helpful. Dislikes: Transmission tunnel gets hot. Last thoughts: If you want to chase away stress, turn the car on & the roar of the engine will put a smile on your face.

Great car! Recommended highly!
It's a great car. Goes fast in a decent amount of time. No problems with car at all. A dependable car as long as you don't go in ditches or big dibbets in the road.

Chevrolet converter problems.
The catalyst converter blew up. Otherwise it is good. I have had some problems with my engine cap and the sensor going off, so it made my check engine light go on. Therefore when my car wouldn't accelerate on me it was hard to know what exactly was the problem. Or when the problem originated.

The most comfortable car you will ever find!
This is car is one the safest cars I have been and I have been in many cars. This is one car I can count on. I have had this car for quite and while and have traveled long distances too and it never failed on me ever. I don't know what I would do without it. This car is also very spacious and comfortable too especially when you have little kids riding along with you.
