However, you have to consider  several things, first of which is safety. Yes, the car has enough  airbags, but “safety” is not just about airbags. There are things like  stability, weight, sturdiness. This little thing is fragile! It is not  good enough for highway and long rides in general. Acceleration is bad,  so passing other cars will only cause unnecessary stress. And it is  noisy, especially while trying to accelerate. The interior has way too  much plastic, although it’s not as bad as in some other cars. Scion IQ  is only a good choice if you plan to drive it around the city.  Otherwise, you can buy a better and sturdier car for the same money.Smart fortwo <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/smart-for-two.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/smart-for-two-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>Nedless to say, this is not a car for long rides. It can be very  unstable, which makes it unsafe for the highway rides. It doesn’t have  enough power to quickly pass other cars. In fact, this car has the least  power of all cars. Most owners are not happy with the fuel consumption.  For some, driving Smart fortwo is convenient because it is so tiny and  easy to park. But is it worth the money? No, not really.Vauxall (Opel) Adam<img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/vauxhall-adam-680x350.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This tiny car might look cute, but that’s all there is to it. It is  incredibly slow, that is the first annoying thing about it. It doesn’t  deliver much torque and power, so you won’t enjoy the ride too much.  They did a good job making it attractive on the inside, but wait! Don’t  fall for the ‘starry sky’. It reflects on the rear mirror and it will  annoy the hell out of you as soon as it gets dark outside. And this is  not something you can fix. We are wondering why they did it and why they  still haven’t fixed it. Another downside is not enough space in the  back, so it will not be a good choice for those who travel a lot.Chevrolet Spark <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Chevrolet-Spark.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Chevrolet-Spark-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>This small car might look economic and you might think of it as a good  choice, but think twice before you decide to spend money on it. All  right, we can see it’s not a looker, and it’s certainly not a comfy  family car. But that is not the bad part. What will really annoy you is  the noisy engine and overall bad quality of materials. Not too safe and  not good for long rides. Hard to resell later, you will lose a lot of  money.Dacia Duster <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/dacia-duster.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/dacia-duster.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>When you take a look at it, you think „Well, it looks quite good“. It  does. Dacia surprised everyone when they made this car. It does seem  like a serious SUV. But, wait! Here are some downsides you should know  about before you buy a Duster. First of all, the AC will drive you nuts,  especially the rear unit vent… and there’s no climate control. The next  thing is too much plastic everywhere – inside and out. Not only does it  look bad, but it makes you feel like you will damage something only by  scratching it a bit. You will also hate the hard clutch. And the poor  sensors. Its stability is questionable. All in all, it looks like an  SUV, but it’s a poor man SUV.Hyundai i10 <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/hyundai_i10.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/hyundai_i10-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>If this is all you can afford, and you really want it – that’s OK, but  be prepared for the downsides. First, don’t expect too much comfort. It  seems that other owners are not happy with the fuel consumpion, they  find the steering quite hard, and all in all – they wouldn’t describe  this car as reliable. Therefore, not a car for long rides. Also, if you  ever want to resell it, be prepared to cry. You will get very little  money for it.Dodge Grand Caravan <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Dodge-Grand-Caravan.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Dodge-Grand-Caravan-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>If you compare it to some other minivans wih a similar price, you will  probably see that it is not that great. Tall owners are complaining that  they don’t have enough room for their legs, and that there is also a  lack of space for those riding in the back. Some also say that driving  on bumpy roads is extremely annoying. For the same money, you can buy  something better.Mitsubishi Mirage <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mitsubishi-mirage.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/mitsubishi-mirage-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>You might be attracted to a cheap car with the word ‘Mitsubishi’ on it,  but don’t rush into it. This is not a great car for the road. It has  issues with acceleration and passing other cars. Too much plastic inside  the car makes it look even cheaper. There is not much space for those  riding in the back, and that is another reason why it is not good for  long rides. All in all, it is not the worst car, but you can buy  something better for the same money.Mini Countryman <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Mini-Countryman.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Mini-Countryman-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>When you look at it, it doesn’t look bad. It is not terrible, but it is  not the best car you can get at that price. First, there is an issue  with the automatic transmission: people who have tested this car say  that the automatic transmission is very slow (manual transmission  doesn’t have this problem, though). The cargo capacity is not very  impressive (although there is enough space for the passengers). Again,  not the worst car, but most people who drove this car said they would  probably be happier with something like Honda CR-V or even the old HR-V.Volkswagen Beetle <a href="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Volkswagen-Beetle.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.carophile.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Volkswagen-Beetle-680x450.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>Volkswagen Beetle is not the worst car in its class, but you can buy a  better one at the same or similar price. The first limitation is that it  is not a car for long rides. It could be good enough for you if you  don’t travel much or you just plan to drive it around the city. The  manual transmission is more responsive than the automatic transmission,  and therefore a better option. If you are a Beetle fan and like the old  classic style (that reminds you of the old Beetle), then you might be  happy with this one. If you’re not, you should consider other cars in  the same price range.</blockquote>
