The best car EVER!!!

I have owned several smaller cars. This is by far the best. I bought it because my first car was an older model of the same vehicle. I was 16 and rode that car ragged and it still kept going. I have had this one for 3 years now. The only thing I have had to replace is the clutch on the a/c. I am not the most responsible car owner even though I am married to a mechanic. My car never disappoints me. I have a 2 year old and I never worry that we will be stranded anywhere. Unfortunately we are expanding our family so we have to move up to an SUV. If I could make this car larger I would never get rid of it. EXCELLENT gas mileage. I get gas about 3 times a month for $22 from empty.
200,000 miles and going strong

I bought this car new with 28 miles. I now have 212,000+! It's an economy car, so nothing fancy with the features. Replaced the usuals, but the front wheel bearings have needed replacing. The intake manifold gasket is next. Not bad for the high miles. It's a zippy car (4cyl, 5-speed manual), and the MPGs have paid for the car. Low resale, but not sure I'll sell before 300,000!

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?
A Decent Kind Of Car

I bought the car back in February 2007 for my wife with 95,849 miles on the odometer. We drove it to Florida 6 months later and spent 100 dollars roundtrip on fuel. The only problems we had with it were a bad ignition coil, a/c compressor quit working, water leak(ending up replacing the radiator, water pump and thermostat). Otherwise, it's a decent kind of car but I rarely drive it because it's too small for me but perfect for my 5'3" wife. I have no complaints about it. We currently have over 160,000 miles on the car and still going strong.
Awesome car
