General Comments:
I love this car. Handles great, got power, fastest I managed to go was 210 KM/h with 2 passengers in the car and still could go faster if the road was clear.
The fuel economy is excellent. it's 2.0 litre so takes me 666 Highway KM in one tank of (55Liters) and 500 City KM
Leather seats are very comfortable.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have a '97 dodge avenger sport and I haven't had any problems with it at all, all I have had to do was get new tires and some struts.
