Hey Dan, just a heads up.. On the video is says the car has a 1.6L Turbo and in decription on the side it says it has a 2.0L Turbo.

Thanks for the catch, Parsley! It's a 1.6 ... I fixed the description.

Wow, that's sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! I test drove the normally aspirated version several years ago and didn't want to return it :-) The mpg you recorded was surprising, though. I felt confident the rating would be lower than indicated...a pleasant surprise. 5/5!

This one was a blast to drive. The gearing allows for excellent mileage. I drove this one with a good bit of gusto and it delivered ... it's all about picking the right gears and laying off the throttle ...

@mpgomatic can you get it in automatic or just manual

[mpgomatic]

It's available in both 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic.

[Onegurrrlrev]

do they sell this model in automatic or do i have to learn how to drive stick?

[markmarshall39]

wow, love how the key works!!

@daezylife understand, being automatic means its heavier, 1 grand+ more expensive and could be a little bit less fun depending on how you drive and define fun while driving.

but yes, and its a lot of fun to drive! :D
