I have the same year car, and in stop and go traffic, it is not fast off the line compared to the turbo models, but I get by in busy traffic with no problem. At highway speeds, the car handles like a dream, is safe, comfortable, and loafing at 65-75 mph. Any faster than that, and I am looking to get a ticket. Milage is excellent, getting about 26-27 in non-highway driving, and up to 35-37 straight highway at legal speeds.
