Default Traded my wife's 2008 GS AWD for 2012 CPO CT200h

Hello everyone.
Three days ago, my wife and I traded her 2008 GS350 AWD to 2012 CPO CT 200 H.
Dealer gave us good deal on her GS and we jump on it.
The reason she wanted to traded GS is mainly due to mileage, and (I think she got bored of it).
Past two days she been driving it, and loves it. I personally missed GS. It was big, powerful, fun to drive, and fast. My daily driver is 2013 Ford C Max ( it is also hybrid ) fast but not as fast as GS, therefore it was good change when I was driving it.
Both of us driving an average of 18K miles a year each, so it was out of question just to swap my ford with her GS. Also she hates my ford due to initial problems we had with it.
My impression of CT as follow:
1) Good handling.
2) Slow, but fun to drive.
3) Comfortable driver and front passenger seats.
4) Good viability.
5) Fills light on its feet, especially when compare to GS.
6) loud on speed above 45 miles per hour.
7) good breaks
It is been 3 days of ownership, in my opinion not enough time to get to know car, but so far I see it as a economical, practical and fun little car.

Congratulations on getting a 2012 CT! It's a great daily driver that gets really great MPG's and very low maintenance costs. I purchased my CT back in March of 2011 and I have over 82K miles and runs like a champ. Happy driving...
