Good car. The best in its class. You couldn't find a multifunction display on Honda Jazz. I think i should get this one.

@IROCwarriorAMC88 thats whats up! and if you were to do a light rebuilt you have that baby in your drive way for another quarter of a century... im telling you cars these days are like toilet paper: you use it then throw it away "it sucks" IROC

@IROCwarriorAMC88 I totally agree, its about high volume autos there defintely are trying to shorten the life span of the automobile.. to try and conform consumer to either repurchase or lease car every three to four yrs tops.. reserchers notice where high population of people are city based and most likely masstransit would be more efficent to move around.. taking a piece of thier market,, thats why the auto manufactuers are put most of thier meat in the small car market

not really slow and the sound is quite good for such a little 4 cylindered engine.

These are good cars. I own a decently loaded 2011 SE. This thing is not going to win every races around town, not that I do this, though it is not gutless. It just goes on the freeway though. Just drop the auto into low mode and you speed on up to triple digits a lot quicker then you would think given that is has a smaller engine.

The mileage is about 40-45 on the highway, low 30's in town. Good stuff. Ford has a winner here and I have little negative to say.

@Sherlock996 They do! Ford didn't intend this car to shift super quick when they designed it
