But if it's just yourself and one other person for the most part, there shouldn't be an issue with how the car performs (at least from what I've noticed while driving mine). Overall, it's a great value, and I would personally get it again if I had to...no regrets!

The heaviest load I've ever had consisted of a thin 5' 6" woman and a thin elementary school aged girl (in addition to myself). This didn't effect the zippy feel. I imagine the zippyness would be sapped with 4 people (especially 4 adults). I agree, it is a great value (I might even say stellar), and I also have no regrets.
