| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The quality of the materials used in the interior is terrible. Paint is coming off of the black plastic interior parts, even when only using *water* to clean. Dealership says this is normal! The automatic windows sound cheap, as do the doors when closing |
