I have been looking at it as well. Starting to grow on me. Thinking about going for it. Would have to trade the smart and would miss the gas mileage but a little more room and a normal tranny is starting to sound good.

It rides super nice. Quiet on the highway.... Lots of storage space. Good AC. Screwed together nice. Strong engine. Easy to see out. Nicely loaded for under 19 grand. Didn't like it at first. We call it now ugly/cute.

If I was looking for my "large family" car now, this would be it. I picked up a versa two years ago and the MPG and Price are very much the same as the Versa. Witch would give me more for my Money?

If it were black it would look like a squared hearse.

That's what my wife said it looked like. She hates it. She hates the Xb even more. That thing is a hearse.

We drove the Kia Soul too. It rode nice great warranty 10 year 100,000 miles free oil changes, for life of the car. That was this dealers offer. It felt a little on the cheap side. Lots of option, on it too, for $17,000

I like the look of it. The Xb, too. These kind of cars always appear that there's something going on inside. I dunno what, but something....
