Mine was bone stock for about a year and a half until i added some TEIN springs and a custom air intake. Other than that mine is fully stock.
When stock it is VERY fun to drive, especially in corners.
In a straight line its not FAST per say but it is very quick for a 1.5l car, i guarantee you no other stock 1.5 can beat you lol. I think its very quick for what it is.
All in all, excellent buy for the money. I've had mine for over 2years and driving it very "spirited" lol and its given absolutely no problems ever!
You must always use premium gas, and if you drive conservative for an entire tank it can give you 400Kms. But anytime ur foot gets heavy, which is going to be a lot lol, then it drinks gas.
As amir said you cant get body parts anywhere beside the firm or unless you personally ask a foreign used dealer to look for parts in japan/singapore for you. About maintenance parts, not sure what amir meant by available in all parts shops and cheap :s, from my experience almost all parts for that car you will have to go to the firm and it ENT cheap!!
