Good performance - long distances without problems.
Takes only about 8l/100km.
Cheap second hand car.
No repairs yet, except for the two flat tires in the first month. :-)
good variability (stowable bakc seats)
nice sound
good acceleration (115hp)
comfortable seats
bad gear shifting (especially rear gear)
All in all a affordable car that satisfies its driver a lot.

Pros — endurance without any noticible problems
Cons — handling on wet street

I like the sporty nature of my car, ease of parking, and
overall driveability. I get mediocre gas mileage
compared to other sub-compacts. This is a cheap car
to maintain. The color gets so many compliments: Its
like a copper/gold/bronze. I wish I had money to
customize! i love my car

Pros — 5 speed, easy to park
Cons — ford badges

This is a great little car! It accelerates smoothly, and relatively quickly for a 4 cylinder. It handles very well, and corners like a pro. It gets great gas mileage too, about 30 miles per gallon in town and 35 on the highway. All in all, it's a fun car to drive! Oh yeah, the stereo it came with kicks major a*s!

Pros — Saves me so much money on gas!
Cons — There's a little bit of a rattle when I slow down.

I like all the windows.  I don't like that it is a 4 door.  The trunk is large and the engine is slow.  20.3 seconds for 0-60.  The cost wasn't too bad and it is fun to drive.  Overall, it is a good college student car.  It gets you from Point A to Point B

Pros — Windows
Cons — Slow engine

It sounds like a lawn mower, runs like a go cart, accelerates like a turtle, its breaks squeak 24/7, sucks in the winter, light as a fleather, the slightest breeze will blow it off the road, non power windows, non power locks, only two cup holders, possilby the gayist paint job, but other than that its ok.

Pros — gas milage
Cons — the car itself
