It definitely gets great reviews. A friend bought one for his wife - she loves it. I'm going to give it a whirl when I can get out there.
And I completely overlooked the Honda Civic. Someone I know must have one.

I would look into leasing a Honda Fit EV since it has been discontinued. Not sure of availability in SC though.

Had a look at the Scion iA last night - the owner I spoke with likes it a lot. I know nothing about the brand, other than it is a Mazda manufactured automobile and sold by Toyota - should be reliable.

Also, the iA was new for 2016 so I wonder why it's for sale if the owner likes it a lot.

Hyundai Sonata (maybe a bit big) or Elantra.
Great cars and the warranty transfers.

Those have a good reputation as well. Getting a little tiring hunting for the right one, but it is for the best cause - my wife.
When it's done, it will be back to more old BMWs for me - starting the search already - after a 1972 2002Tii - the one below is outstanding, but with the Alpina tuning more than I want to spend.

Why don't you buy that one for her?

My S.O. is shopping another Sentra. We put 380,000+ on the one before the present one.

We need something newer and reliable for her - I love my old BMWs but they can get finicky once in awhile.

Years and years ago I had a Datsun 240z - I need to look into Nissan now, I guess.
The list just keeps getting longer - but, I would rather do it this way and have her be confident and happy with whatever we get.
