Bought this for my wife today

I had an offer on my 96 S10 I couldn't pass up so I ended up getting my wife this for her birthday.
She loves it, I had a hard time getting her out of it this evening...

I just had a sonic as a rental car for like a month while my cruze waited for parts for a recall. It's not a bad little car, 0 back seat room and the trunk is almost non existent. Only a couple issues I had with it. It has no thermostat light or indicator. And the wheels might be too thin, need something wider like cruze sized wheels. Taking turns can be a bit scary. Best of luck to you and you wife!

Nope. So far pretty impressed with the little car, just driving it around today its showing 34 mpg. That's with quite a bit of sitting still with the AC on while figuring out the my link stuff..

Definitely easy to find parking spaces.
I have found out as big problem though. Other drivers must not be able to judge the speed I m coming towards an intersection at, We have already had 3 cars pull right out in front of us.
I am sure they can see that bright green.

Agree, that color is hard to miss.
It just so happens that I went and purchased a new car for my wife but went the other end of the spectrum (2012 Suburban w/only 8000 miles on it). It replaces our 97 Suburban we bought brand new and she just had to have another to replace it with. I added the bug deflector and grill inserts.
