Heck even if it didn’t I would have kept it and turned it in that way. Place both on a ring and they would have never known...

Wife already went to look at a new 2020 Hyundai Accent and a new Kia Rio as that's the size the kid wants again if it's totaled. She prefers the middle Accent SE while I think she should spend a bit more and get the top of the line Accent. Told them to check online with Truecar.com to see what others are paying in our area. I'm out of it now and I'll be called back in if they get that far to help with pricing and drive it home. Honestly, not sure if they're gonna just give her a check and send her on her way. Are they really going to fix an 11 year old vehicle at this point? Needs a front bumper, new headlight, front fender and probably some other work up front plus a 4-wheel alignment. Not sure what the book value is so will ask Q.
I've been after them to go test drive vehicles for weeks just in case something happens! Since she only wants a sub-compact, think she should go top of the line and get as many safety stuff as possible. She can afford it, so we'll see. She always has wanted a Mini Cooper but they are a bit pricey.

If the car is totaled, I agree spend a few bucks more and get a loaded model. It sounds like it will kept a long time so it's worth it.

I'm curious if it feels/handles at all like the mazda5.

Between the driving time and the $60/month charge for tolls on the 869(Sawgrass Expressway), it just got to be a bit too much. And there was also the amount of gasoline used, usually a couple gallons/day...give or take depending on traffic. After 5 years, or just about 5 years, saw a job much closer to the house and gave it a shot. As I've mentioned before, the first attempt a couple of years ago would've put me in a silly meeting spot in mid Broward and then it was down to the Ft. Lauderdale airport office. Would've taken more drive time though less in petrol and tolls but, just wasn't worth it. Applied back in early October when this closer gig started showing up on Indeed.com, but nothing became of it after a few inquiries. Saw the same ad back in early November and after a week of phone/e-mail tag, we finally got connected and things moved moved a bit quick after that. Wanted me to start the first week of December which worked once Hertz agreed to let me go after just a week. I had planned to give them two weeks as I thought was customary. I've only quit a few jobs in my lifetime, those being both in 2013 with my independent contractor transporter positions.
So, will hear of their plan once the insurance company makes up their mind about fixing or cutting her a check for book value. Again, prefer the latter so she can start fresh with everything new as she's gotten her money out of her Accent at this point. Time for a change. But it ain't up to me here. I'll just offer any advice if asked...better that way!

other than that the V6 model felt heavier and softer (since it is). and quieter, but I missed the "growl" my car gives you. The seats were nice. Big comfy thrones, a touch roomier than the A spec seats (and softer). the narrower and taller tires, and non-sport suspension, also were noticeably softer and smoother, with less sharp handling. I was surprised a little at how much I noticed the difference.
also noticeable was the lack of content without the tech package. No auto wipers (it was pouring today). base stereo was still good. Missed the BLIS too. no built in Navi. Gotta have the tech package!
If I really wanted the V6 would probably go all the way and get the GG special (SH AWD A spec), Or at least tech package.
Edit: I think the loaner also did not have parking sensors. Not a big deal for my drive today, but I remembered how used to them I am now in the front, because my daughter stashed a big box (xmas present of a smoker grill for her BF) in the garage, in front of my car, not leaving much room to work with. so I actually use them pulling in. And found out when I got back home that they turned off the ones on my car, and did not turn back on, so they never chirped at me (I still stopped in time, using the plastic pail stuck in the wall studs landmark to park by!)

FWIW, I agree with you about the black wheels. I don't think any other wheel color would look as good on that car.
Now all you have to do is give us a report before the first oil change, otherwise you're going to get a dues bump.

Nice ride !!! Congrats.

So glad that 2020 will be the year of great choices for smaller vehicles around 170 inches. Hatchbacks or CUV's, don't matter to me, just happy that I now have some choice players in this field for me to make my choice. As much as I do love my 2015 Golf, I also want more of the safety nannies but also want that killer sound system as this could just be my last vehicle in this life. One never really knows what G-d has in store for us at this age and I just want my next vehicle to be pure fun, fun that has outstanding sound. Don't think that's too much to ask but want it all for under $30K out the door! Hoping for my Golf as a trade-in and around $20K to get the deal done. I know that that'll be possible with the cast of characters for 2020 without evening inviting MB and BMW to the party. Assuming they'll all be turbo's but a regular 4 cylinder wold work fine to.
Has taken awhile but, I'm finally ready to start looking for a new vehicle within the next couple of years.

@Sandman6472 sorry about your daughter's wreck - hopefully, she isn't too beat up!
