I first discovered the Reno attending this year's auto show. I'd nearly forgotten about it until I began seriously shopping again. I prefer both a hatchback design and manual transmission, so I looked up the Scion xA, the VW Golf, the Ford Focus, and the Reno. After test driving all 4, I realized what a hidden treasure the Reno is. Loaded with standard features, including side airbags, the Reno offers a more sophisticated ride than the Xa, and is priced much lower than a comparably equipped Golf or Focus. It is extremely fun to drive, quite zippy around the city, smooth and quiet on the highway! The European inspired design is great.
