The performance is great. The build quality is solid.  The appearance is gorgeous.  The gas mileage is good.  The acceleration, braking, and handling is amazing. It does not need repairs. There is no squeaks or rattles.  this is a really good car to drive.  I do recommend this car to a friend because its really fun.

Pros — Performance, and appearance.
Cons — None

Right..so once you have managed to clamber inside this super go-kart your ok..Turn the key and off we go and BOY!! does it go!! I was really surprised by how quick this car accelerates. Power-sliding was fun too as the track was a bit slippery ;-)

Pros — Very quick pickup and once you are in the seats..its quite a snug fit.  Great sounding engine and a dream to throw round sorners.
Cons — Forget about fancy modernities as you will get very few with this car but its all about the thrill..If you have the space in your garage, this or a caterham are a must have for those sunny weekends. Little niggles like the door handle design could have been much better and getting out is a bit like hard work especially if you are like me and over 6' tall.  Last but not least...not fun when it starts to rain haha

great for driving at high speeds on a flat, even surface. good acceleration. kind of too noisy for me. Wouldn't want to get into an accident with this. I once pulled up at a red light next to what i thought was a mid-size to large suv. when i bent down to look out the driver window...i realized it was a Mini Cooper next to me. Yea. definitely wouldn't want to be in an accident in this thing. Too toy like. Not practical at all.

Pros — good acceleration, fast, gets people's attention
Cons — can't drive it in the rain. the slightest miscalculation of a dip or bump could mean you lose your whole bumper and everything connected to it..very tiny, very light, therefore very dangerous.
it is so low to the ground, even I have trouble getting in and out of it.

You think you need a car that can take any corner @ blinding speeds and feel the g's as well as the impact of every pothole you drove over on the road in order to believe you're really alive? Strangely enough, errrr YES!

Pros — You've purchased a package full of enjoyment, performance, acceleration and the amazing freedom that you get from driving a motobike like you stole it.
Cons — Should have stolen a motobike.

This car is perfect. Toyota built engine, fast as cars that cost 5 times as much. This is the
next car i will be buying when i have the cash money.

Pros — Tight as hell, holds the road like a suction cup and is really small. The way i like it!!!
Cons — none, might be a little harsh on long rides. But this is not a commuter car.
