    Not very nice... she doesn't say anything we haven't already read in other reviews, but she sure says it in a nasty way!

    No offense to any Americans on this forum, but the mirage isn't desiged to haul the average American weight.
    All they care about is pollution coming from their huge trucks and fast in a straight line car.

    I can be wrong, but I ain't, this review looks like the Chevrolet has an interest on review like that. The sales of Mirage are climbing when the Spark's are not.
    It's possible that in a few months Mirage's sales will exceed the Spark's.

    I read this review this morning and found it to be very harsh. She noted some of the good aspects of the Mirage (fuel economy, features, price etc.) but tore the car apart otherwise

    I think most importantly she is fairly hot (on youtube) she was equally critical reviewing a Ford, so she has a pass with me.

    I was not surprised to read that she was reviewing the CVT. I bet if you compared the 5MT to CVT reviews, the ones who drove the manual were more likely to be upbeat about the car.

    I saw this video, too. What I've noticed is the way that guy was driving Fiesta, he made turns by using his one hand (even palm). I never take seriously what people have to say when they can't drive the car properly .

    The CVT has the real CONS: it doesn't make people feel that the car is accelerating. This lady said the Spark is better, but the thing is that the Spark until 2013 had the Automatic and trans changing gears. It felt like the car was accelerating faster. But it wasn't.

    The huge Pros of the CVT is the same: no changing gears. The car with the CVT drives much smoother in city traffic and when you go back to the Automatic or Automated Manual you notice how terrible they are.
