 Just bought this car few weeks ago and already facing problems with the engine.  Engine is extremely weak, weaker than I had anticipated. Some times I have trouble to accelerate into merging traffic, and since I live in hilly area. It revs very loudly and power is very insufficient.  Consider buying a used Japanese or European car which is 8 years or so old. With more power and features.  And gas mileage is not as great as people think it is...
