Pros:

The vehicle was easy to handle and rode smooth

Cons:

The women explaining the details while I looked at the car was a little rude especially when I pointed out marks on the vehicle and the fact that the back tire had extremely low tread versus the other three. Seemed like she wanted to add on too many "extras" onto the quoted price online.
