Great design and utility, lots of room for carrying stuff and traveling. I like its look. I have never owned a Japanese vehicle before (I'm 47), but this interested me. Probably not the best long distance vehicle though. Seats are non-to comfy, cabin noise is kinda high, consumption is rated at 21/24. Engine is torquey, I found myself shifting into 4th just driving around town. Acceleration is fair, it ain't no turbo, however! Shifting is pretty good, great shifter placement, clutch a bit mushy. IMO this would be a great 2nd or 3rd car for a family. I think though as a primary vehicle for an old dad like me it can't knock my 9-3 out of the picture.
