A couple things I like are what look like some interesting design features, like the "cradles" or buttresses surrounding the center console leading to the dash. They almost look like grabber bars, but you wouldn't need any there. I'm sure they add rigidity, but they kind of look cool. Also, the textured/patterned door panels on the rear doors. Looks like there is very little overhang in th eback, which gives it almost a Ford Ka look to the rear, which I like too.

Things I don't like: nothing-I'm being weaned off my xB fabtasies and thinking VW!
Thanks...the car has a lot of nice touches.

My daughter is very pro-environment and she will like the PZEV rating...the car barely pollutes

I like all the dimensions. It is a very modern Euro design. I think that wagons and hatchbacks rock...
