Superb compact sedan
This is one of the best small compact sedans out there. It has enough power and torque to not be a dog on the road but still maintain great gas mileage. It is very comfortable and handles the road well, especially in turns.
Well Done
Exterior and Interior are great for the price - if you compare to the Jetta - then you will be depressed, but compared to the Civic - coupled with the savings - winner every time. The engine provides just what us econo shoppers are looking for - dependable, solid and pretty quick around the corners! Very happy with the purchase
Fun, Quality Car
Despite having only 120HP, this car is surprisingly quick; it must be due to the 130ft-lbs of torque. This is the most comfortable car I've owned, with lots of leg room up front, and a big trunk. All devices are well-positioned and easy to use. Interior and exterior styling is a little bland, but classy.
5 years old and running great
Purchased 10/2005 with 48,000 miles. Now (10/2007) has 75,000 miles. No issues whatsoever. 29 miles per gallon mixed driving. Does what a 4 door 4 banger econobox is supposed to do and does it well.
Nice Car!
Bought it with 16K mileage and after 6 months it has over 28K. I haven't had any problem so far. I used to have a 1993 Lancer GLX, it was a very nice car. So, I decided to buy another one in 2002. I am very happy with that. It's very roomy and comfortable. It's good handling and the accelaration is adequate not great. It gets better at high speed, I hit 120MPH easily(sorry cops!!!). The quality is fine but I would prefer better interior quality. Not very happy with the gas mileage. I can say it is average. The wind noise is a little bit high but generally the car is quiet at highway speed. It comes with good standard package and it is very fun to drive!
