Looks like a nice clean car. Hopefully it treats you well.
lol exactly! I've received a ton of weird looks when I get out of such a low car. Surprisingly I don't..I just can't pull too far forward at stoplights, but if I do I'll just stick my head out of the top lol.

Thank you to everybody that has responded so far in the thread. Now I have a little fun fact for anybody who has been thinking the same thing as I have. Right after I bought the car I was just shocked at how big the trunk was so I did what any other 23 year old would do...I hopped in the back and to my surprise, I fit very comfortably! So this next weekend I'll be taking her to the Oregon Coast and spending the night in my trunk for fun..lol little camping trip with the new car. Also, I've mentioned before I'm quite tall so don't be afraid to do the same! (I recommend using a little stepping stool just in case so you don't rub on the back of your car
