It is her daily driver, we have owned it for nearly two years and have traveled 20,000 miles with it.
Fuel efficiency is great! We average nearly 35mpg on long trips, even with the speed alarm screaming at me while consistently exceeding 80mph through the montains of West Virgina. In town mileage is naturally much less.
Issues: It would be nice if the rear seats folded completely flat. One trim piece on the left rear door window surround tends to sag (I just need to affix it with some RTV). No maintenance or reliability complaints. Very comfortable on long drives, but we intentionally bought one with the Premium Package (dual front power seats) because the standard passsenger seat didn't "feel" right to either of us. I perform D-I-Y oil changes at 6 month/5,000 mile intervals eventhough the Oil Life Monitor indicates these to be half-way points.
Her friends all love the car too.
