How it scores for you10 scores
Affordable rear-drive purity with a dependable, simple powertrain — the price is a loud, firm cabin and rear seats fit only for luggage.
Recalled far less often than cars of the same model years; none of its 3 recalls were serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +3 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $3,000 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 33% of cars we track.
6.9 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 20% of other coupes we track.
2+2 rear seats are token; best treated as a two-seater with a parcel shelf.
Light, balanced RWD coupe with superb steering; a perennial critics' pick for affordable handling purity.
Basic small touchscreen, no modern driver-assist suite; bare-bones by 2017-2020 standards.
Stiff ride, loud cabin, thin seats; refinement was never the mission.
Typical resale value for a coupe.
No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
