How it scores for you10 scores
Nearly 350 rear-driven horses and a manual for pony-car money - a lot of honest speed per dollar, wrapped in a cabin that shows the savings.
Recalled somewhat less often than cars of the same model years; 1 of its 4 recalls was serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Limited history so far, so this score may move as more recalls are filed. Adjusted +2 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $4,250 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 3% of cars we track.
10 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 40% of other coupes we track.
Token rear seats and a 10 cu ft trunk; practical only by coupe standards, and barely.
348 hp, rear drive, a proper manual, and a willing chassis - a genuine budget sports coupe even if less precise than the best rivals.
Basic period equipment with available nav; the cabin was the car's weak point.
Stiff ride, heavy clutch, and highway drone - tolerable daily, tiring on long hauls.
Typical resale value for a coupe.
No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
