Front brake rotors recently replaced.
Thermostat replaced.
Resonator pipe replaced (the original one broke, likely as a result of some of the roads I travel every work day).
My 4-door hatchback handles very well, and operates quietly. It's great for commuting to the train station and for scooting around town. It may not be as powerful as some other vehicles, but it does whatever I need it to do. I don't need a race car in my everyday life - and I really appreciate the $$$ savings on gas.
My only quibble is with the seat belts. I'm short, and the seat belt has a tendency to cross over my neck rather than my shoulder, and also it has a nasty tendency to twist. This is one area where the "economy" nature of the car shows through.
I anticipate many enjoyable years of driving my little 4-door baby :)
Addendum to my original review:
A problem I have noted is the failure of the horn to sound when the steering wheel is significantly turned; that resulted in my car being hit today because I couldn't warn a guy backing up that he was backing up into me! I don't know if this is a design flaw, or whether my horn/horn buttons are faulty... in any case, I am less than a happy camper with this particular situation.
