Had my 45k service done, and got a CT200 as a loaner. I'd always wondered how it drove, so I got my chance. Well, I'm glad I bought the HS instead :-)
It's not a bad car, and I really like the sport mode, where the power meter turns into a tach - wish the HS had that. And it handles well. Otherwise, I see why so many people say it's small and cramped. Worst part is the visibility - it has huge blind spots in the rear, which make it a poor loaner vehicle. I almost hit someone as I merged into the left lane (yes I had adjusted the mirrors).
I was very happy to get back into my HS...it has its faults, but it also meets my needs pretty well. I plan to keep it until Tesla comes out with their smaller sedan :-)
My wife and I had tried a CT when looking for a new car, the blind spots were horrible and we were very happy to find out they had an HS demo car left.
