Used 2004 Suzuki Aerio Consumer Reviews
04 Aerio SX -- Best Blend
I tested a HUGE number of cars before buying. I found the Aerio peppy (pulls well in any gear and handles most hills with cruise on in 5th gear), eager to go, great confident cornering (unlike the Vibe/Matrix which scared my wife and I when we drove it after testing the Suzuki -- we were never sure where the Vibe/Matrix was going to go when going into turns, and they required constant mid-course correction). Can't understand Edmund's review that handling is sloppy on the Aerio SX! Did the reviewer check the tires for proper inflation? I think it deserves another review! Could use a bit more storage, better cup holders, but love the rear under-floor storage.
best buy
test drove most of the competition. in my estimation the aerio blew them away.
Value for Money
I was very apprehensive when buying a suzuki since i havent seen many on the road. But when i took a test drive i was very happy with it. Good power, good mileage, great sound system, looks good and drives well. I had a corolla before was thinking of buying the same car again. But after driving a suzuki aerio i changed my mind simply because i was getting more car in an aerio than in a corolla. My experience was good, hope yours was too.
Gets me from here to there, no problems.
$3,000 cheaper than the competition and a 7 year warranty! Pros: Good mileage in automatic or manual. Different looking, making it easy to find in a parking lot. Nice seats Great stock radio (6 CD changer, 6 speakers) Tons more head and legroom than the Protege5.. Cons: Narrow, tall styling makes it lean quite a bit in sharp turns Different looking, making some people smirk at your car Engine is a little growly at highway speeds, but not too bad.. No factory sunroof option You have to remove the headrests to fold the back seats down Dash isn't sporty enough. Hopefully it's a good winter car.. I hope I don't regret not opting for the AWD.
Great Car
I love this car and with gas prices continuing to rise it is very affordable!
