All the cars features for the price point are amazing! CarPlay, a sunroof, adaptive led headlights, the list just goes on and all that for under 20k is amazing. I will add that the ac could be a little colder but my specific vehicle has no tint. Also for a “performance car” the engine is very quiet and I don’t like the “soundaktor” feature which plays false engine noise into the cabin from the speakers. I’d compare it to a Mazda speed 3, a wrx, or gr86.

This is the most ideal car for the price in most every way. My *ONLY* complaint is that the seat bolstering in the upper back is a bit too prominent as it pushes my shoulders forward in an uncomfortable way. Better seats and this would be a 100% perfect car! Fun to drive, VERY useable space, great layout and controls, good back seats, perfect!
