Excellent feel and style. This was my mom's car I would drive occasionally during high school and it ran like a dream. Great car to learn how to drive and it seemed to be good on fuel efficiency compared to my brother's clunky Honda Civic. Not too small and compact that it looks out of place, or that it didn't have enough space; it was the perfect size. Roomy trunk space for hiding the bodies, I mean putting the groceries. The car has comfortable seating, both for driver and passengers, and handles well. Overall, there is nothing I would say against the 2003 Toyota Echo. It was my favorite to drive.
