My daughter absolutely loves hers. It gets great gas mileage and the tires have lasted a long time. She peeled all the stickers off, sort of like the de-badge look you see on tuner cars. Assembling it was a real challenge with a Xmas eve hang over at 8 in the morning. Glad there was no engine to install.
Got one at a garage sale for 5 bucks. Both my kids beat the crap out of it. The coupe was tired and had faded to pink so I applied a "custom" krylon fusion paint job and sold it for 10 bucks at a garage sale. Also the little lace looking wheel covers were gone. Anyway, hows that for resale...eat your heart out accord drivers.
In the parking lot of one of the businesses near my work someone rolled one of these Cozy Coupes out and parked it behind a smart fourtwo. Seeing the two back to back was rather amusing.
Is the plastic soft-touching?
