Good Basic Car
I bought this car in Feb 2005. Under warrenty I had the driver's seat stabilized (it rocked), power steering replaced and the taillights replaced. Since I bought a new battery, replaced belt, brake job and radiator flush. It's at 77k now and driving just fine. I have had no problems with this car. It really lacks power and has "got up and went".
My First NEW Car
This was my very first NEW car. So far I’ve really enjoyed this car. At times, I miss my old car because it was a sports car, but the sporty look and SAFETY of an SC2 make up for it. Don’t get me wrong – it’s peppy just not drag racing material. The performance and reliability have been impeccable. I love the dent resistant panels! It will be so nice in 3 years when the car looks the same as it does today! I would definitely recommend this car!!!
Four Speed Clunker
After needing to replace the whole car's transmission at $750 (not covered on expired warrenty....) Back seats are too deep making the ride uncomfortable. When more than one person in the car, engine works over time. Car overheats regularly in high traffic, even in moderate weather. Tires are bad and brakes don't help much in inclement weather.

its ok, small but economic
Good car for money.........?!
Bought the $9995 special with air and am-fm radio.Using it as 3rd car as 16 year old son is driving my ford F150......This SL seems to be quieter than my '97 SL2. Using it mainly to go back and forth to work. Car has plenty of pep and darts in and out kinda like a go-cart. Seats sit too low...might not be too comfortable across country drive.....$10,000 won't buy much in a new car today but the only thing cheaper was a Rio...
