The Pontiac is built in Korea. My friends have bought their high school kids the Honda Fit, Scion xD, Nissan Versa, and Toyota Yaris. All are great little city cars but I’m uncertain about their highway capabilities. Quite frankly, compared to my Italian girlfriend’s Fiat Cinquecento (500), the aforementioned Japanese cars seem like mid-size sedans.

My Stepdaughter has a 2008 Nissan Versa Sedan. She and her boyfriend took it to Florida last summer. It is a great car for highway driving. The only thing that would concern me is going over an elevated Highway or bridge with high winds.

That aside, it gets over 33 MPG on the highway and is a lot of car for the money.

To be fair to GM, I have heard good things about the Chevrolet Cobalt as well.
