The first few years have been great. I love the hatchback. I can't tell you how many times I was glad to have the extra room and hauling ability.

Thus far the fuel economy has exceeded my expectations, but I hyper-mile when I drive and am very conscious of not accelerating like crazy or braking hard.

No major issues to report in terms of repairs. There was a small issue with the stereo that was fixed, and I've had a couple of flat tires, but other than that, nothing major

One serious negative are the 'performance' tires - they needed to be replaced around 60K, and I would prefer to have something rated for 100K+ and sacrifice a little handling
