Would Definitely Buy One — We drove this car to Florida on our honeymoon. The color matched our wedding colors. I was able to swap my custom wheels from a breeze on to it, as well as my intake, just for fun. Sounded and looked great. I would've bought one if I could have.

Pros: fun to drive ,color, comfortable

Cons: a little slow,not as much cargo space as i would like

Do Not Buy One! — Car has a lot of quirks and defects that diminish its overall appeal. Even though it is a GT, there is not enough torque and acceleration on this vehicle.

Pros: The car has a nice "Dick Tracy" look, and is comfortable inside.

Cons: This car, as stated before, has a lot of little manufacturing defects that reduce its overall appeal.

Little Speedster — I loved this car so much. Never left me stranded or had any technical or mechanical difficulties. As long as you keep up with the scheduled maintenance it should last for a very long time. It is a nice size to race around town in, go on road trips, beach cruise, or to haul items around in. Trustworthy car and has kept me safe since 2006. Fun fact: I named her Beluga because it is white and reminds me of a Beluga whale!

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros: Great zippy little car. Good for a daily driver. Very clean and well maintained.

Cons: Gas mileage is okay, turbo boosting is fun but uses some gas.
No ABS brakes/traction control
