History
Fell in love with the design when first introduced to the US market. Finally bought mine in 2015 with about 65k miles on the clock.
I've decided to name her "Keiko", which means lucky or blessed child, in honor of Keiko Matsui, a favorite musician of mine; not for any exploited orcas. I think that "Keiko" is the perfect name for a "scion"!
Sadly, she was T-boned and totalled in May of 2017. She protected me well. I will miss her...
