Peace of mind as my wife drives this car more than I do. I also feel that the reliability factor adds to the resale of the car.
The overall look is very rich for a car in this class. The seats are comfortable and there are many luxury touches.
The engine is smooth and quiet with plenty of kick. It also has exceptional fuel economy for a car with such good performance. The 5 speed auto transmission is OK, but could stand to be a bit smoother in its operation, especially on the downshifts.
The interior materials are a notch above other cars in its class and they look as though someone cared how they went together. The feel of the switchgear is of a high quality and feel. The car overall just seems screwed together very well.
