I have had this car for 4 years and I have never had a problem with it! It's great on gas and gets me where I need to go does not matter where. I enjoy having this car and anyone would.
Fun, Fun and Then Some More Fun

Bought this car used from a dealer. I was there shopping for new but saw this little gem outside on the lot. Took it out for a test drive and had a ball. Low mileage, one owner, clean and relatively cheap. So far I've invested in nothing but some sticky tires. The engine is a reliable, gas sipping little 4 cylinder but its power to weight is just right to keep driving interesting. It doesn't have the exterior fit and finish of an import and there are some minor interior design flaws. The driver's seat is a bit small for a tall person but there is enough leg room. The third door is great for loading large items that won't fit in the trunk. Oh yeah, did I mention it's really fun to drive?

Very dependable car so far. Performance wise, could use a little more horsepower. Bad blind spot toward the back left side of the driver. Interior build quality is kind of cheap.
Good Base Model

Bought last year for $5000 out the door. Gets great gas mileage (32 on combined surface/highway commute) has acceptable power for a 4banger. Looks good. I find it very uncomfortable on long trips. The seats sit low and have a deep pocket for your bum which means the raised edge hits your thigh and cuts off your circulation. A slightly firmer taller more upright seat would be so much more comfortable. The steering is a bit tight -can be jerky at high speed. The plastic insets (a/c vents, console pieces, etc) vibrate and make a lot of noise when idling at a stop or driving in low gears. Rides a little rough, you can feel all the bumps in the pavement
Plain but Reliable

My dad bought this car when I was in the 8th grade now I am a high school senior using this car. It has about 90K miles on it now. It is burgandy with the automatic transmission. I put 2 upgraded 150W speakers in the back for better sound quality however since it has the moulding in the back you cannot hear it that well, so it's better to invest the money to put them in the front first, then the back. The standard AM/FM/ CD Which mind is equipped with is OK. This car only has a SOHC 8 Valve 100HP engine so the performance is only OK. I drive it fast since I'm a teen and already screwed up the tranny which got fixed. It's a solid and reliable car with good fuel economy. Do not race it
