Criticisms

  • "...the engine lacks the deep torque of a V8 for strong off-the-line pulling." - Cars.com
  • "Stability control and four-wheel disc brakes with ABS are standard, though grippier tires would help both handling and braking." - Automobile
  • "There is no driver-side vanity mirror and no power adjustment to the passenger seat - though for this kind of money there should be." - Cars.com

First Generation/Origins (2006–present)
