Default Drove it, pretty Cool

My friend Patrick of Toyota of Greensburg, western Pa., called today and said they got an IQ as a fleet car to use, not for sale, come try it. We did, seemed smoother than I expected on the highway, like a go-kart on the back country roads. Enough zip with the CVT, but I would really like to get one in a 6 speed, it definitely needs lowered a little,and not cheap 17 K with a 1290 option package, but all in all a really Cool car. I will probably need one in the future.

That price tag is really rough.

what is on that option package?!
the ones at my dealer i was at trying the iQ out were 16K.

i had the exact same thoughts on it though, surprisingly zippy and handles like a go-kart!
that back seat is almost completely useless though, lol, for where i had the seat it was right against the back seat and i am only 5'8"

There's plenty of room for four adults, if you know two paraplegic friends!

I drove around Vegas with three full sized adults and we had plenty of room. That fourth seat behind the driver (me) wasn't going to allow anyone over four feet tall to sit there.
