Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
What’s new
A driver airbag debuts. ES trim replaces GL nomenclature. Order ABS on an ES sedan and you'll get rear discs instead of drums. The optional 1.8-liter engine is available on the coupe this year, but only with ES trim. Sedans gain standard power steering. Air conditioners use CFC-free refrigerant.

Perfect first car

1994 Dodge Colt ES 2dr Hatchback
i bought this car from my friend's mom in December and it was minus 30 degrees centigrade and they brought it to my house that morning it was minus 37 and it started better than any new vehicle. It has never been plugged in or charged and it has the best fuel economy ever! I drive the heck out of it and it still goes almost 11-12k per litre. It has power, acceleration, and speed. I am in … love
I love my Colt!

1993 Dodge Colt GL 2dr Hatchback
I bought my 93 Dodge Colt brand new
and have had it now for 11 years. It
has never given me any major
problems. It is very reliable and
made by Mitsubishi. The stereo system
is not very good, but for reliability,
driveability, and overall handling it
is great. It is a small car but you
can always depend on it to get you
where you want to go!
Cheap & Dependable

1994 Dodge Colt ES 2dr Hatchback
I bought this car from my brother in early 2005. This car has been the most dependable car I've ever owned. I laugh when the car commercials come on and they try to brag up how good of gas mileage they get on new cars, when my 14 year old car does the same or most times better than they do new. I'm at 140k plus miles on the car so far. I plan on owning this car until it breaks down … to the point where it would be more expensive to replace than to fix, but I don't see that in the foreseeable future. That alone speaks volumes on the quality of this car. I could go on like some people do about how this or that could be better, but the car fills its intended roll perfectly.
