    I would assume that the C is quite the step up compared to the old Metro, congrats!!

    Yeah, about a thousand times safer, too. But as of last week, the Metro was still doing 4 commutes a week, and getting 45 MPG. Lowest cost/mile vehicle I ever had, it still has the original clutch, the brakes were finally replaced at 230,000, wiper motor, starter, blower motor, all original.
    A weird thing happened the day we brought the C home: we had a wind storm going on here, trees and branches blowing down all over, I got worried and put the C in the garage, and left the Metro out. It decided to pout and refused to start all week, finally got it going this weekend, turned out it was flooded. (Why, I don't know, never did that before) I ain't superstitious, but still...............

    I'm 28, F, and work at an energy-efficiency non-profit. Currently living with my parents. No kids. I have a partner but don't live with her yet. First new car. Previous car was a Volvo 850 wagon. I commute 30 miles each way to work, and am loving my ~54 MPG compared to the 22 I got in the Volvo.

    I'm 21, not married (long-term cohabitator, though haha), no kids or dogs. Current car was my first car: 2001 Ford Focus with 104,000 miles. Can't wait to get rid of it and get my hands on my c! Every time I walk outside, I warn my Focus that its time is up...

    25, married, no kids yet but it'll probably happen sooner rather than later. Replacing a beloved 2001 Saturn that can no longer handle the 20,000 miles per year we've been subjecting it to lately.

    52 here

    I love small cars (my 2004 Prius is a big car to me), so I was really excited about the Prius C ..... until I actually sat in one.

    The interior feels way more "Yaris" than "Prius", so I'm still on the fence whether I want to go downscale that much.
