body still looks good after 9 years, but had a recall or two; parts falling off-accelerator pedal;mirror;casette deck broke; front strut let go around 50 k miles; motor mount broke, taking power steering pump with it;( $600 if I remember correctly);replaced cam cover gasket twice; at 60,00 miles, "check engine" light couldnt be remedied, took several dealer visits and $700 to replace just about every sensor, etc to get emissions and computer controls to work properly drivers seat adjuster failed. repaired at dealer for $200, found out that seat frame was bent and the seat had to be trashed (got a replacement from junk yard) anodized (black) trim on door/window has weathered to bare steel

Great car however is a little too low to the ground. Is a little difficult getting in and out of without hitting your head. Other than that a great car!

15 years and still going strong

Good little car. Rides well even after all these years. Had the brakes replaced a few times (once under warranty, alternator replaced twice but other than regular maintenance & oil changes haven't had much problem with it. Still gets good mileage. It's not the smoothest running car or the most powerful but it is a very economical and easy to drive car. Except for a few dings the body still looks good. I still drive it everyday but will soon give it to my son who needs an old economical car to drive back and forth to work. After 15 1/2 years I,m going to miss it.

this car is my baby since the dayI bought it. It runs as hard and i've never had anything major happen to it. I've modified it and now it can beat preludes, 240sx's, and eclipses, just to name a few. This car sticks to the road and has excellent handling. the low ride i part of the reason. I love it.

We've ended up not liking the car that much. It's clunky and has a really wide turning radius. The gas mileage in the city is pretty low: 20 mph maybe. We had to replace the transmission about a year ago as it was jumping into reverse with a real bang. On the other hand, now it feels as if it will just go and go. The body has remained in good shape and the cloth interior has held up. Because the resale value is so low, we've decided just to drive this one until we can't any more. At 10 years and still going strong, I suppose that's not bad.
