Pros: PRO: well-equipped, quiet, 4-cylinder has adequate power.
Cons: CON: felt every bump, sensitive to cross-winds, long travel on brake pedal.

Pros: Lots of great features that you would expect in a $50,000 car for only $30,000.
Cons: Terrible hesitation, confused transmission and brakes that try to out think the driver.

Cons: Not much. Speakers have muddled bass. Dash has nice materials, but still somehow bland.

Pros: Great gas mileage
Cons: no acceleration, no brakes.
