I think it would be interesting to see what other cars everybody considered, test drove, etc. before finally deciding upon buying a 2. Why did you choose the 2 over everything else?
For me, I considered a Mazda 3, Hyundai Veloster, Hyundai Elantra GT, and Scion tC for new cars. I discovered there wasn't a Scion dealership in my city, so that option was off the table pretty quick. I test drove a Veloster, and I thought it was dreadful, and the guys at Hyundai were a bunch of dicks, so I didn't even bother test driving the Elantra GT. The Mazda 3 is great, but I didn't need the extra space and I wanted something light as possible, so the 2 fit the bill.
I also considered an EP3 Civic, 7th gen Celica GT-S, and NC Miata PRHT for used cars. I couldn't find an EP3 or GT-S with decent mileage, unfortunately, otherwise I would have very much enjoyed either. I really wanted the Miata, but my better judgement took over and I decided the 2 would be more practical for winter.
