Bought it for historical reliability. Ended up having transmission problems in the beginning after only 200 miles on the odometer. No problems with it since last fix at 35K. Bad water pump at 59K but fixed under warranty. Knock on wood no other problems.
Very simply laid out with functions clearly labeled and moderately sized buttons and knobs. No over-sized or undersized buttons with weird labels or graphics here (c.f. Acura).
Better fuel economy than EPA estimates. Get 27 city, 33 highway (rated 25/32) without babying it. All highway driving at 55-75 mph with flow of traffic, A/C full blast, 4 full-sized adults and a trunk full of luggage can get close to 35 mpg.
Ride is very smooth. Stock Potenza A/S tires are crappy and can squeal going any direction other than straight at low speed. No traction to speak of in any conditions. Replaced with Michelins bought from Costco and ride quality/handling increased a lot!
Clean lines with large greenhouse without appearing too tall. Got mine in Desert Sand which shows practically no dirt unless looking at it from a few feet or closer. Easy to see out of except for slightly larger-than-expected A-pillar.
