Great Car, but weak

I've loved the car since i've had it, but a couple weeks ago I got into an accident going no more than 35 probably, and it's totaled. Weakly built. And it was a hard impact, the airbags didn't go off.

Over 115,00 and still running

I was third owner and bought with 68,000miles. It is 4 years later and over 115,000 miles and running great! Very impressed with its high performance and handling. Still zippy and fun to drive; handles very well in snow, as long as it's not too deep as the car sets low. Have had issues with aluminum rims and having to replace tires that won't seal the rims. Added a remote start so car heats quickly in cold. Had to replace shocks initially, but no problem in 4 years.

Why is it falling apart ?

My car was one of the first to be produced and I think they were still working out the bugs. Fit & finish is slightly below average. Generally the car was holding it's own (just a transmission issue early on).Since the car reached 30,000 mi. & just after the 36 mo. warranty was up, it's been really crumbling.Battery has been replaced, front struts are noisy, brakes are vibrating, hatch won't stay open anymore, alignment is off, rough shifting transmission, moonroof gremlins,paint oxidation,millions of rattles, what's next ?

Great experience

It's been a fun car *and* reliable & economical to boot. Good-looking and practical! Have not had any repair issues even at 75K miles. It is sporty, yet can be roomy enough in a crunch. Lower the rear backrests, and there's considerable luggage space. Don't like the rear visibility esp. with the rear spoiler.

I've had this car for close to two years now and I've got nothing but praise to say. I've never had to take it into the shop for anything but an oil change, and it still drives smooth as the day I purchased it. If you're after a sporty car with some punch then I highly reccomend it.
