Was thinking of replacing my 7-8 month old genesis coupe (<7k km on the odo) with a honda jazz 1.5, as the missus is having a hard time driving it. She feels its too wide and hefty for her, plus its manual. I'm thinking of getting a Jazz or a fiesta (sub-compacts only please) so she can drive it easily. We both love the Mini but its out of our price range at this stage in our life. We just got married and don't plan on having kids in the next couple of years. I only drive the car for 2 weeks in a six week period and she has to drive it the rest of the 4 weeks due to my work.
I'm a bit biased to the Jazz because of its utility. I've test driven both cars and found it underpowered because I came from test driving a smooth 2.0 liter Lancer prior to testing these two. However, I'm still undecided.
