Pros

-TurboCharged Performance that can be upgraded for more power for less
-Great Handling
-It's a driver's car built with the enthusiast in mind.
-Good Price/Performance ratio comparing to it's rivals in class
-One of the baddest FWD cars out there

Cons

-Front seats are uncomfortable for long rides
-Lumbar support has no support
-Only comes in Stick Shift
-Once you start upgrading the power you get addicted to boost.

Great Car For The Price With A Lot Of Potential. — This car is made to exhilarate the enthusiast on a budget. Best bang for the buck if you are looking for a turbo car that performs like nothing else in it's class. It's hard to keep your foot off the gas, that's the only bad thing so far that i am running into :D

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)
