This car is very nice and amazing

It's a great car to drive. What I really like about it is the volume the speakers have is very tremendous and the car itself looks pretty good but depending on the color you get, My car is a light grey but dark at the same time. I recommend this car to car buyers and others.

One amazing ride! You will never what another vehicle.

I love this vehicle! Always reliable and drives very smooth, very comfortable for long car rides and very good on gas! The only problem I have is space but that is a small price to pay for such a great car. It drives amazingly smooth in the snow I never have to worry about getting stuck.

My car had a good sound system and seats.

I love the speakers in my car, the bass is really strong and I appreciate that because I didn't even have to buy a new sound system. There is a no-key feature I really like as well. My car is pretty techy and I love that, the colors of the lights in the car are blue and red which look stunning. The seats are very comfortable and leather, which is nice. I do not like soft seats. The seats on my car are almost like ones you can sink into.

It runs great, fast, small and cute but have one only thing, waste of gas.

It waste lot of gas money, I would spend 15 bucks in only gas, only driving from home to work and may the store,
