I'll be honest, as someone who personally drives an older model of the car as part of my commute, I expected the worst: a bumpy ride in a tight space for ten longs hours each way.
Instead, I was pleasantly surprised. Not only was the car fun to drive, it was also incredibly comfortable - something that can't be said for most cars its size.
