decent reliable car
It's been very reliable, and when it needed repairs, it's been reasonably easy to figure out, understand. The car has some sophisticated engineering without being over-engineered. It has a rudimentary information display system that has been very useful, will tell you when lights burn out. It has impressive throttle response. It's not a car that will rocket from zero to 60 or 100 just by flooring it. But it responds best by thoughtful throttle usage. It gets off the line very well, but it's best ability is going from 40-60 very quickly. It's not a gutless 4 cylinder, yet it gets decent gas mileage. Handles well, good braking, good steering and turning radius. Great stereo. Is it a perfect car? No, but it's pretty good at what it does and it's reliable and easy to understand.
