My thoughts about my base model
I have had my 97 4-banger stick as the original owner with only 17 miles on it when delivered to our dealer. I have gotten 500 miles to a single tank 4 times. Mine is not governed so I have had it up to 131 flat straight away in Germany and 136 downhill there. This car is fun to drive and has a huge trunk. And at 159,634 miles still going strong
Best vehicle that I have ever owned.
The powertrain has to be the most suprising feature of this vehicle. Also, the independent rear suspension contributes greatly to the superb handling of this race inspired road rocket. The interior is almost as aggressive as the exterior, and in that regard, is just as appealing. Overall, this is the best vehicle that I have ever owned.
GREAT CAR!!!
I have had this car for 9 months. I love it. It is hard to make U-turns but so what. I have had one problem with this car and it was the altenator belt broke. For being the only problem in 9 months that is GREAT. The car is so reliable. I love the stereo system. I love everything about it. The fun of having the get up and go.
Love my '97 Avenger Sport
I have had this car since 1997 and I love it! It has been a fairly low maintenance car and it runs great! It still looks brand new except for the side mirrors that are a little faded from "road-wear". I have definitely gotten more than my money's worth. It has 66,000 miles on it and I plan to put plenty more on it. It's a great cruising car for road trips or commuting to work and my son's car seat fits in the back, perfectly.
We have been quite happy
This was the choice of my wife as it was to be her primary car. We have put 197,000 miles on it with no major problems. We recently replaced the front end struts.
