*  Performance:
  – Acceleration: good, but could be improved slightly considering the engine the car is equipped with.
  – Braking: It could use a bit more brake power, but it's ok as it is.
  – Handling: outstanding with new tires, otherwise it's just ok. Very reliable, predictable and fun to drive. Clutch and gearbox sometimes lack precision, but not too much.

* Build Quality
  – Not a single problem in 5 years of intensive use. Even after a small crash it has never given me any problems.

– Very little space for the back seats. Usually, the car only fits 3 people max, as I will need to move the driver seat all the way back.

– Loads of space for luggage, etc.

* Appearance – interior is unbeatable. previous BMW 3-series are awful in comparison to this. Exterior is also great. Designed in 1999 and still looks great now in 2009. The wheels could be bigger and the back is not very nice without the spoiler, but it's still a very good looking car.

* Cost of Ownership
  – Depends on how its driven, but it's definitely not an eco-friendly car :) Official Toyota service is THE BEST. I like their service more than Cadillac or Mercedez, and it's cheaper than VW-Audi too!

* Fun Factor – Extremely fun to drive when road is dry. When wet, be very careful and know your limits.

Pros: Everything except the negative points ;)

Cons: Limited visibility, but it's a coupe, what were you expecting?

Always taking into account its market niche:

*  Performance
  – acceleration: good for a 149hp car.
  – braking: a bit disappointing. More break power needed.
  – handling: outstanding with new tires, good otherwise. Very reliable, predictable and fun to drive. Clutch and gearbox sometimes lack precision, but not too much.

* Build Quality
  – Not a single problem in 4 years of intensive use. Even after a small crash it has never given me any problems. The main seat has a spring which now makes some noise, and the dashboard rattles, but that can be repaired easily.

* Appearance – interior is unbeatable. 3-series BMWs without all the extras look crap in comparison with this. Exterior is great. Designed in 1999 and still looks great now in 2009. The wheels could be bigger and the back is not good without a spoiler, but it's still a very good looking car.

* Cost of Ownership
  – Depends how to drive it, but it definitely not an eco-friendly car :) Maintenance is cheaper than VW and official toyota service is THE BEST. I like their service more than Cadillac. Enough said.

* Fun Factor – Extremely fun to drive when road is dry. When wet, be very very careful and know your limits. Safety first!

Pros: Everything except the negative points ;)

Cons: Limited visibility everywhere. But it's a coupe, what were you expecting? Performance on wet pavement.

The car is sleek and stylish. Great on gas, especially since prices are going up. I turn so many heads when driving it. It came with a great sound system, CD and cassette player. It is fun to drive. I absolutely love this car. My dad thought it was a ferrari when he first saw the picture of it from the front. I wish Toyota hadn't stopped making them.

Pros: Great on Gas! Sleek and Sexy!

Cons: It's a great car

I really love this car. It obviously has some cons, but nothing important. Incredible reliability, nice performance overall, great feeling and looks, very fun to drive, top quality interior, space is more than enough considering it's a sport-like coupe. However, the gear lever is not precise when switching down from 3rd to 2nd gear at mid revs. Impossible to switch from 2nd to 1st if not COMPLETELY stopped (annoying during peak traffic hours). Brakes could be more powerful. Wheels could be bigger. Stock tires are bad. The clutch pedal is a bit tiring for everyday use but you get used to it. The beeping while reverse is engaged is annoying. Toyota GPS is bad in comparison with today's solutions. The car LOVES to drink gasoline, but hey, that's understandable. It performs considerably better when the tank is completely full.

Pros: Reliability, fun factor, looks.

Cons: Nothing important.

Looked OK but a little slow if you have the 140BHP version

Pros: Looks OK - Nice interior

Cons: Hard ride - Bit too much like a go-cart
