This car rocks. I've been driving a sunfire for the past 6 years and what a difference this car is, and its virtually the same price.

The handling is awesome! I did a u-turn going pretty fast, and the car just slid- I hardly felt any body roll. The car is much more spacious, the engine sounds/feels so much nicer, and I love the 16" tires. The acceleration is alright - plenty fast for the money. The only complaint is the high revs going 120 km/hr. I rev at about 3500.

I got the R&N air filter and will install this after going a few weeks with the stock one - will report on the results.
