it keeps going, amazing
Well, what can you say about a car that starts everyday and never breaks down, year in, year out, it's hard to describe but it earns a place in your heart. My wife bought this car 6 years ago for $1000, it then had about 130K on it, many people told her, "it's a 4 banger, they don't last, you wasted your money" WRONG! it now has over 216K on it! It does not burn oil or leak oil, everything works on it! even the A/C, amazing!! This little car has won our respect, sure it's old, slow and looks rough but who cares, i just think of all the money this gem has saved me over the years and i can't believe it, wish I had a car like this long ago. The only thing we replaced was the starter/battery
I'd Buy It Again
Most reliable, economical car I've ever owned. Has 117,000 miles and still going strong. Only replaced starter so far.

Great Car
Although it only has 105hp, I've never had a problem keeping up on the highway; there's more than enough passing power. I've only had a few minor problem's with the car since I've had it and it's been running great since. I now have 90,000 miles on it and it still runs like it has 30,000. Alhough it is rated at 26 miles per gallon city driving for the automatic, I regularly get 30-32mpg, never below 29mpg. Being in Hawaii, I do 80% city driving.
Great Car
We have 105,000 miles on this car. Its a work horse. Never had any major problems except to change the bearings in th efont drivers side wheel. Big Deal. I recomend this car to anyone!!!
I loved this car
This was my most favorite car. I only had to replace the tires and the battery. It had great gas mileage and was super dependable. It started up on the coldest days of winter without a problem. So sad that I lost it to a car accident, I was planning on keeping that car for another 100,000 miles
