    I definitely wouldnt say there are no down sides, the dash on the gxp's are cheap and will make alot of popping and crackling noises(but yes I think the interior looks good). Tires are a pain since you cant rotate, and if your getting 25 mpg in the city you must be pushing the car from behind while it is idling through the city......its about time for some new tires for me though, I will get a vid soon of me roasting whats left of these off.

    Just to clarify, I'm getting an average 25 mpg. And I do understand that tires and brakes are going to add $200 a year. But its reliable, a hot-rod when I step on the gas, and a fairly economical family car when the car seats are in the back. I guess it's all in one's perspective. Compare the performance and fuel ecomomy to Maxima and Camry.

    except a good bit faster than a maxima overall. I do love my car I wasnt saying that I didnt.....but was just saying that there are a couple of irritating things about it.

    That's fair. I guess when I stated that it had "no down side", I implied that the car was perfect. It isn't. But I have a family, and am still young at heart, so the car was ideal for my situation.
