As for safety, in some kinds of crashes there is no replacement for being in a heavy car.

coupe starts at 16,700 convertable starts at 19,700

a typical equipt coupe runs about 19K ( I tried "building" a couple on the site)

they have an 800cc diesel, one guy in winnipeg I talked to that had one says he averages 75mpg around the city

they are def not a highway car IMO, but as a city commuter (wich is what they were designed for) I think they'd be great
