My God - What a car!

4 of 4 people found this review helpful

Being a construction engineer, I knew of Daewoo's high quality in heavy earth moving equipment. Over the past 20 years I've owned a Buick Lesabre, a Mitsu Galant, and a Honda Accord. All new. I must say that these auto these brands - along with others - are probably relieved that Daewoo is no longer around. In my considered experiance, this Leganza CDX is indeed better than any other car I have ever owned, on many fronts. The styling, handling, ride and build quality, features and duribility are supurb. I purchased mine for $16,999. In contrast, I remember a Saturn (with far fewer features less power and sloppy ride) with a sticker price of $24,789!!

I bought this car from my sister about five years ago. Sometimes she indicates she would like it back. There is no way she is getting it because I am driving it until the wheels falls off. It has more than 120,000 miles on it. It needs some cosmetic repair. However I haven't had much more than routine repair such as tires, brakes and oil changes. It is too bad they do not make anymore.

Problems with my Daewoo are as follows: One)the tape player broke just months after purchase. Two)the back windshield blew out after turning on the rear defroster and it started smoking. Three) Daewoo refused to check for a manufacture's default in the windshield or the rear defroster, until my Insurance replaced it.

I recently bought the Leganza with 11000 miles on it. I could not afford a new car and my options were limited on the used cars. I saw the Leganza and copmpared to the Cavalier or Focus Ithought it was great. I test drove it and it felt like a luxury car. I had to have it. At about 16000 miles that is when it started ticking, then at 19000 miles the transmission has locked up. The biggest problem now is that Daewoo will not stand behind the warranty and I have a lifter gone on my engine and a locked transmission. That is whay they have a built in shift lock release. Oh, and I got horrible ga mileage.

This has been a superior buying and driving experience. I purchased my 2000 Leganza in 2001, drawn to consider the purchase because of the low price for an auto with so many "luxury" appointments, coupled with the fact that I had been impressed while riding in one that a friend had rented when he was visiting in Ca. Factoring in the price I rate this vehicle a "10".

Honda-like in build quality. Nothing goes wrong with this car. After 37000 miles still drives and feels as new. Fuel economy exceeds EPA estimates for the highway. Use of Mobil 1 oid may help. Minor wind noise from sunroof. Only problem of note is the factory tires. Showing much wear. Replacement with better quality tires may help tire life.

This was the best car I've ever owned, including Cadillacs, Saabs, etc. The CDX had leather, sunroof, nice sound, fun to drive, FAST, and many things I could figure how to fix myself and I'm not mechanical. I got from 28-32 mpg using premium fuel. Unfortunately, someone hit me and I totaled it. This car would have easily gotten me to 200k miles if some jerk on a cell phone hadn't been late for her flight and trying to hurry. I am now about to buy a 2000 CDX.

I purchased my Laganza brand new in Feb 01. I had only 3 cars before her yet none as good. Never had any major problems, only recently the dealership that serviced her closed and there was no one reliable to take care of her. The other week the timing belt snapped. So now I lay her to rest ... If there was another one out there I'd buy it today - the best car I've ever had. Farewell Silver Bullet

Had this car for 8 yrs and had minimal problems. Repair shops will give you the run around if you don't know anything about cars. I can get practically any part for this at the local Autozone. If a mechanic won't touch it you need a new mechanic. He/she should be able to fix anything and it's not rocket since. This car has 4 wheels and an engine just like every other car on the road. Much easier to work on than a VW for sure. I had my doubts when my wife bought it in 2002 but it has been a great vehicle and at 10 years old it looks amazing, is dependable, and cost us practically nothing to own. Great car! Too bad Daewoo went under here.

Bought car new 1/2000 and got rid of 1/2005. Maintenance costs escalating.... after 2003 Only 1 dealer left in 100 mile radius who would touch it and EVERYTHING was special order. Couldnt even go to regular muffler shop like Midas, Meineke...Exhaust system cost me over $800. First 50k miles great, but if you are buying one used with 60-80k, get evidence of new timing belt or DONT BUY IT!!! Replaced at 65k with other items, I caught just before it gave out, dealer had 3 others in with blown engines...Daewoo seemed to have designed this to blow up 5000 miles after powertrain warr.expired. Often check engine light issues as well. Gas mileage started to deteriorate rapidly after 70-75k mi

I was a little hesitent about buying a daewoo after all the problems I have heard that people have, but for $1,300 it wasnt that bad. bought car with 90k on it, and has a little over 94k. No problems, maybe a little oil leak, but all is well, and the "POWER" feature doesnt work. Great gas milege, about 400 miles per tank. leather a bit stiff and seats really offer no comfy position. Dont recomend driving far in this thing cause not comfy, but around town its good. Engine takes a while to warm up for it to shift into 4th, CD player and sound system average. A few quirks here and there, but thats to be expected. Even if the car goes another 30,000 miles,i believe that is well worth the $1,300.

This is one of the better cars that I have driven. The ride is very enjoyable, and the automatic transmission is quick to shift and peppy for a four cylinder engine. I like the style and the way it looks outside and inside. The music system is superb and I like the cassette/cd combination. The only letdown is the lack of information on the different parts and where they were manufactured.Information on specifications and a shop manual would be greatly appreciated, since nobody knows the workings of all the different parts and availability for purchasing parts that require replacement and or repair. Diagrams of the various parts would be very useful as would be availability

Love my Leganza. The unique euro styling catches plenty of attention, the gas mileage is fantastic (I choose driving it over my Rendezvous any day). Went through a minor accident and came out amazingly well. (The other car was totaled!) This car never should have been taken off the market, reliability is SUPERB. The only negative I've had with this car is the fact that when they stopped producing Daewoo in the U.S. my warranty disappeared into thin air. All in all, buy this car - it's a steal.

I bought this car new and was disappointed by not being told the brand was going belly up by the dealer. Other than that the car has 132,000 miles on it and still runs and drives great.No major problems and I've never gotten bored with the car. I drive it 66 miles round trip to work and it has never left me stranded.I'll drive it as long as it goes. Love the heated mirrors a godsend in Michigan winters and the styling.The cup holders are to small for more than a can of pop.

I have had this car for over 3 years and have nothing but VERY good remarks for it. I bought it as a left over on the lot from previous year. The car's engine is very powerful for the type of vehicle; I can pass almost ANYONE. There are also special features like the hold and power buttons on the transmission which come in handy for passing and merging using power and getting out of snow using the hold. It is great on gas mileage, it still holds between 32 -35 mpg. I have only had to fix normal things like brakes and oil changes. We use this as our family vehicle and have taken trips with it in the past. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone needing a good car at a GREAT price.

Ok I have mine leganza now exactly 5 years. The 2 worst repairs were the failed heater (in the winter of course) and a blown head gasket. Make sure you run it with a premium fully synthetic oil because the engines run hot. I have owned anything from a 96 Mustang, Mazda 626 and a Sub Forester but this top of the line.... Daewoo...I can't part from it. Comfy on the freeway. Questionable reliability? Any car can fail. Especially the newer ones

SO i give a tune up but this car just had it out for me ...I always kept up on oil changes , radiator flush transmission fluid change etc. but it didn't matter all in all about 3 sensors, a radiator, head gasket ($1100 just for that), not to mention the handles on the inside where a fake plastic chrome so they pealed n cut any one who touched them , the dash came apart from a few hot days melted the cheap glue.Every part was really expensive..Only ONE dealership would service it in the whole state of Wisconsin due to it being discontinued. oh yeah had to redo the whole break system except for the lines. trani went at 91000mi

I still enjoy driving this car--peppy, if a little slow to accelerate--but in the past year it's been in for major repairs (price wise) roughly every 6 weeks, and parts have to be ordered from GM and shipped from SOUTH KOREA. Problems started at roughly 80k, am at 93k now and they just keep getting bigger and harder to get parts for.

I have had only two problems with the car. First, the rear window defroster was not operating correctly. Found out from the dealer that it was unplugged. The second problem is that the brakes wore through too fast. The first set of brakes were replaced at 13,000 miles. The second set at 32,000 miles. It could be all of the in-city and up-and-down hills in traffic. Everything else about the car is great.

Maybe the Lezanza is not the most exciting car but for me it has been extremely reliable. After 18 months and 26,000 miles the only problem I have occured when I left the antennae up while going thru a car wash. I would like more power but overall this is a good car and a good value.

Pros: I have had this car for almost 3 years and have absolutely no complaints about reliability or performance. I have had to do nothing to it except for scheduled maintenance. It is a very good looking car, right up there with the more expensive models. Cons: The gas mileage is mediocre in town but up to 29 mpg on the freeway. The radio needs to be replaced with a good one. The steering wheel hides the speedometer when it is in its lower positions. This car has been seriously maligned because of the bankruptcy of Daewoo, but the quality of the car speaks for itself. Now that GM is handling parts there should be no concern about service.

The Leganza is a pleasant surprise and has a nice styling appeal (possibly Italian). It's lightweight and sporty. It is quicker than most cars and has a strong suspension and can out run a lot of cars. It's a road runner on the highway and clips along tremendously fast and solid. The seats are real comfy and it is easy to maintain if properly tuned and oiled, which is a must. The tires are speed rated and stock at 50,000 miles. The brakes work like magic and it's one of the funnest cars I've ever driven. (#1 of 8 cars I've owned), it really motors!!!

I was excited when I first purchased this new vechicle ($16500) but failed to consider the MOST obvious...RESALE VALUE. Last week, I went to trade-in my car and one dealership offered me $2300 and another said he could squeeze $5300 ($600 of that was because of the leather). My car is clean shining, beautiful, everybody ideal automobile but worth NOTHING. I WAS SHOCKED!!!

I purchased my Laganza used. I feel in love with the style of the car. (I thought it was a Lexus at first)Then when I sat in the car I noticed how much leg room it had. I was sold after that. I have had to replace the sensor light twice, but that was covered under warranty. Otherwise the car has given me no problems. I found it to be very reliable and dependable. Everything under the hood is easy to find as well. The get up and go is okay. I found it to be equal to that of a Honda Civic. I do wish it had more power when you have the A/C on. And the gas mileage is fair.

This car has lots of room for backseat passengers, plenty of trunk space, and even a decent stock stereo speaker system. It packs a lot of get-up-and-go, and seems like it wants to go faster! Despite weird little problems, such as the malfunction indicator light malfunctioning, you can't beat the Daewoo Leganza for the price! We do a lot of driving between Bellingham, WA and Seattle, WA, and this car has taken the wear and tear beautifully.

I have had my Leganza for over three years and I absolutely love this car. It has great styling, really nice features, and it is a pleasure to drive. I think that this car should have done much better in the US than it did. GM has rebadged them as Suzukis. I would probably replace my Leganza with a comparable Suzuki (Daewoo). Well equipped car, at a really nice price.

Love my car but after less the 10,000 the lifters would chatter. Dealership said change oil. Didn't help. They replaced lifters,didn't leave the parking lot. Then a head,worked a week, then another engine. One week later it started again. Car was down for 71 days total. Called BBB and was eager to help. Now after filing THREE times my case has been refused. Now plummeting value has caused me to pay dearly to get out of car. I was offered $5,000 tradein lastweek! Beautiful cars,loaded with great standard features but I should have saved my money and bought a used one for less than half. Plan to keep it if you buy one.

I've had this car almost 3 years with very minimal problems. I am just facing the drawback of resale after paying $16k in January 2000. But if you can steal one of these used for $5000 or so do it! Quality CD sound system, comfortable leather seats, good handling on snow. Fuel injectors can be a bit sensitive to make the engine light come on but it wasnt anything to worry about...so I would recommend adding a bottle of injector cleaner to your fuel tank every couple months. My local Toyota (formerly Daewoo and Toyota) dealer assures me that service will not be a problem even with the discontinuance of the Daewoo line.

Bought the car in 2000 with 42k miles. Love driving it! Taken it to Penn State numerous times with no problems. Drive it NYC and no problems. It has a very nice interior and the ride is superior. I think it deserves a V6 for a lot more power. I now have 52k miles and a big problem with this car is oil leaking. Had the valve cover gasket replaced at 48k and now need a new rear main seal. Otherwise it's a very good car...needs new cupholder design and the fuse cover stinks.

I have driven my Daewoo a lot. With the exception of having to replace the from bumper because the spoiler cracked, it has been a good car. It is unfourtunate that the company is in trouble because I believe these cars are better then other Korean car makers. Handling is sloppy for its type of suspension.

I've had my Black Leganza CDX for 2.5 years and it's been a great car for the money. The only reasons to buy this car are A) to save big $$ upfront vs. Toyota, etc; and B) better styling (w/ custom Konig wheels). Only problem I've had is with occasional buzzing I get from equalizer when I start the car which kills me since Daewoo is better known for electronics.

I bought this car a couple of years ago with 70k, now we are at 111k and the car's engine TICKS like crazy! We have always done preventive maintenance (oil changes,timing belt, etc.) and the car keeps having issues. The air conditioning also went out (was perfectly ice cold for the first year I had it). My husband does like the power button, but I never use it. I wouldn't buy another Leganza.

I can't believe anyone would rate this car low. They obviously have never really owned the vehicle and want to smear it's name. My father-in-law was talking trash about this car before I bought it. When I did buy it and showed him, it knocked his socks off. He has a Honda Accord which couldn't hold a candle to it! I compared it feature to feature and the Leganza kicked his Honda's but! (He has the top of the line Accord). How can he compete with the Lotus suspension and the Italian styling? He can't!

Very little problems with the car so far. Driving with Chicago traffic an hour long and more time at the wheel. Getting tired is not a problem. Good fuel milage is also a benifit.

When I bought my Leganza it had 18000 miles on it I didn't know much about the car buying industry, so my father went with me. We test drove it and I knew I had to have it I had test drove hondas, ford, etc. My father said it seemed like a good car. About 7months later I was in an accident and found out that Daewoo went bankrupt, it was hard to find the parts for my car but i say 3-4 months after the accident we found genuwine brand new parts for my car. Also finding out that GM had bought Daewoo out so that meant new Daewoos, has not been made public yet, but you can believe that as soon as they come out with another model I will be getting a new one.
