Tempo is a tough little car
Many people often overlook these fine little cars that Ford built during the last two decades. They really are decent cars, my Tempo is a work-horse, and extremely reliable. It's a fun little car to drive. Granted they weren't built perfect, but they are still nice.
great car
i have had very few problems all of which were minor very reliable car the gas mileage is OK but could be better minor corrosion problems
okay if you're broke
not exactly the safest, most reliable or fun to drive car. expect to replace a lot of parts, and don't ever rear end someone faster than 10 mph because your whole bumper will shatter and fall off.
It is a good first car
I got this car for myself for by birthday two years ago for $500, it had over 144k miles on it, now it has 156k. The top gloss paint has since worn off and I have spent over $1500 on it to fix all the problems like the brake lines, starter, battery, e-brake cable, and exhaust system twice. The window in the back no longer works, and one of the power locks doesn't work. The liner in the trunk is no longer attached, there is a lot of rust. But it is good on gas and gets me where I need to be, although at 55 mph it gets the shakes, not good in the winter, it gets stuck a lot. But it has been Nice while I've had it.
Cheap and furious
This is a nice car. I really drive a lot and it never failed me. The only reason for me to buy a new one is that I want a more safe car.
