Hey Lightning,

The 09 has a few changes its slightly wider, has a small increase in HP and TQ and slightly better fuel mileage. The power steering is now electric motor driven not hydraulic no pumps or hoses or PS fluid.
Has side airbags standard and tire pressure monitoring.

The salesman said 37 total changes from the 08 I havent found them all and may never lol.

It rides great, very very quiet and smooth I like the trip computer it shows instant mpg, avg mpg, avg speed, distance empty, outside temp etc. It was funny driving home looking at the instant mpg showing 42mpg when I'm used to seeing 15mpg on my scanguage in my X.

I think its going to be a great little car hope I get to drive it sometime after today

Here are a couple of pics.
