fun ride but poor quality

My car may or may not be typical, but it was in the shop four times for repairs (wheel speed sensor, fuel level sending unit, fan speed control unit, head gasket, rusty rotors, loud pinging engine when cold). Once it left me stranded on the highway. The trim was loose in places, it got horrible radio reception, winshield trim rattled in the wind, radio station tuning knob turned station #'s the wrong way half the time. Other than the poor quality, it was a good car to drive. The car has good acceleration and cornering and is fun to drive.

I bought this car in order to get out of another one. It turns out that I like it so much, I wouldn't have believed it either four months ago. It runs well, the service is great, and the ride compares with my friend's mercedes! The best part: The dash lights up red at night and the lights are automatic, don't ever worry about leaving lights on all night.

I think this car has been very good. The only thing I have to complain about is replacing the brakes...it seems like at least once a year. Other than that I have not had any problems with it. I have the SE V6 which has nice pick up.

this car is SSSLLLOOOWWWW and handles worse than my old 94 Ford Escort!! For all the flash, it really handles poorly, leaning through corners like a truck and very non-responsive steering. I am sure this car will wear like a typical GM...rust out and be worthless in 5 years.
