Review written on 5/1958.
We've had access to the Donut Spell for a while now. This Coupe surprised us more than the Mage or the 7254 C969. Is it worth the price? Or should you buy a different Coupe? Read ahead to find out!

I was giddy when I heard we were testing Donut Spell. On the track this thing is fast. How fast? Notice there are no pictures on this page? That fast! This is one of the fastest Coupe I've ever been in. As impressive as that sounds, the 103 hp @ 4962RPMs 2551 cc I4 engine is even more impressive. Peddle to the metal, this baby will do 115 mph easily. And in a straight line we hit a 19.887s 0 to 60 mph! The engine puts out 88 lb-ft of torque making it able to tow 22 lbs which is average for this class. There is not much to say about the Donut Spell when it comes to handling. As a Coupe it's below average. As an everyday driver it'll do its job. In summation the Spell is mundane. Mommy can I keep it? Please?!

Once we were done playing on the track, we got a good look at the Donut Spell and I must say, we were quite impressed. While not the most luxurious vehicle on the market. It is quite comfortable for what it is. There is just enough styling and support to last on long trips and impress friends, while not being overly expensive like hyper luxurious vehicles.

For this type of vehicle, the cargo space and practicality of this vehicle is sub-standard. At 19 cu-ft the Donut Spell is bested by several models in this segment. If you need space, look elsewhere.

The Donut Spell has just enough labor of love in it to make it better than most other vehicles. Even though it came off an assembly line you can tell that the employees at Donut love their job. This is reflected in the quality of material and workmanship used to finish the product.

The Donut Spell was designed with longevity in mind. The vehicle is sturdy and easy to maintain. It will last as long as you want it.

Whether or not the Donut Spell is an energy company conspiracy or not is up for debate. What is certain is the Spell awful fuel mileage of 25.1 mpg will certainly drive up energy stocks!

While the Donut Spell is certainly impressive in term of safety, it's not overly designed in this fashion in a way that would imped its enjoyment. Never the less this vehicle is more than safe enough for even the most uptight and poor drivers among us.

In the end the Donut Spell provide decent value for the money. It's not the best car in the Coupe segment, but it won't disappoint. You could do a lot worse. If this model appeals to you I see no reason to dissuade you from it.
