Beware of Early Transmission Failure!!
 I was in love with this car.  It corners like a dream and you can park it anywhere.  Unfortunately, the steptronic transmission has a MAJOR design flaw (some say it was an engineering compromise made to meet EPA mileage requirements, but I don't know this to be  fact).  The reverse clutch drum has a C clip that holds the gears down under pressure.  After 50-75k miles the clip breaks off and you suddenly lose reverse.  It can't be repaired - you have to completely rebuild the transmission.  It cost us $4700. So, if you MUST buy, I would either get one w/ an already rebuilt transmission or invest in an extended warranty.
