Trackmania 2 Canyon has a lot of pro's and con's and is only really just getting a thumb's up from me. This is also purely my opinion.

Pros:
- Good Graphics
- Good Car Physics (i.e. good/fun drfiting and handling)
- Variety of single player maps
- Good multiplayer
- I haven't tried Map Making, but I've heard from friends and reading reviews that it's good.
- Leaderboards for lap times is excellent, and adds some competitiveness in both single player and multiplayer.

Cons:
- The only real game mode is time attack, which has no collision with other cars, and is purely just you driving and seeing the 'ghost' of other cars. This makes the game repetitive after a while. There needs to be other game modes like Race or Elimination, with collision. This would add heaps more fun and diversity, and reduce the repetitiveness.
- You only get one type of car. This isn't a major problem, but having a few different looking cars just adds more diversity which is good.
- As it is TrackMania 2 CANYON, theres only 1 type of environment. Yes this is expcted when buying the game, but once again, this makes the game repetitive, and for $20 you'd expect a little more.
- Car customization is very basic, and is still hard to do. And you're customized skins can't be seen (Unless they download the skin youve made manually) by other players on multiplayer, so you're basically showing off your nice skin to bots on single player.
- There's no real atmosphere. Your purely just driving through a track. There's no birds flying around, or planes flying over or anything to add some atmosphere to the game. It's just your car and the track.
- This isn't really a con, but, when your car falls into water, theres no splash at all. It just goes into the water and NOTHING happens, you just sink or float.

So overall, you're paying $20 to drive 1 car around various tracks, doing the same game mode over and over again. Yes, this is still fun, especially with friends, but the game lacks any real change in pace, and gets repetitive after a while. Overall I would say buy it when it's on special, as it is definitely not worth $20.
