Well, it is significantly more limited than most new passenger vehicles, both in terms of how many people/things it can haul and its safety when sharing the road with vehicles that are on the road today.

And there's many good cars too (Corolla, Civic, etc) that you can get around the same price here in the US...

And crappy cars you can brand new for barely more than half that - looking at you Mitsubishi.
