Changes on the door trim is nice so less buys fall off - more tech on a Late model camira 64 - ride and handling was barely any better than both my bfs and was extremely sh*thouse - motor is standard trim was under whelming. Power delivery was ok in lower RPM OVERALL I couldn’t wait to get out of it.

Wouldnt take much much to wake up but unfortunately I’m not willing to live with the car overall so looking elsewhere
