I agree. It "could" be quite streetable and easy to drive but, as an economic and practical family car/highway cruiser, no, I dont think so. I've already found that for just mundane trips to the shops etc, I prefer to drive the Kia these days. If anything simply because its cheaper on fuel, doesnt show up scratches as much and every ******** doesnt want to race you. It certainly isnt a family car anymore.. but to me its still very streetable.
