Used 2005 Suzuki Aerio Consumer Reviews
Lots of Up Keep
My car eats my tires. 6 new tires in 2 years! I have to rotate them about every 2,000 miles or they will shred in no time. I have had to replace the brakes twice, both after only 8-10,000 miles, last time I paid up and replaced them outside of the dealership for big money and that seems to be helping. It feels unreliable, I won't drive it long distances as I don't trust my tires on road trips. Needed a new belt at 15, 000 miles and the paint chips off super easy. I would love to love this car because it is so super comfy, tons of room and easy to drive, but it has drained my wallet, it takes more to keep it running than it's worth. Perhaps I got lemon.
Very Suprised and Impressed
I picked up this Aerio SX as sort of a joke, coming out of a 2004 Honda Accord Coupe with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 240 hp V6 engine. It was cheap and I thought that I would have it for a month and get rid of it. Well, almost seven months later I still have it and for some reason I really enjoy driving it. It does not have very good handling or impressive pick up, but the shifter is a joy to use, it's extremely comfortable, and I am impressed with the features. So give it a try, you'll be impressed.
1 year, 24k miles and Still LOVE IT!
I purchased my Aerio SX one year ago this month after a ton of researching and comparison shopping. I have been nothing but satisfied with this car! I absolutely love driving it. My wife and I have to take turns driving it to work every other week, even after having it for a year now. It is roomy enough for my family of 4 in the passenger area, and has plenty of room for a couple of weeks worth of groceries, or the dog crate in the back. I have been nothing but pleased with this fast and fun little car. This was my first ever import car, and I plan on buying another Suzuki. You can't beat the price when it comes to warranty and features. I would say go for it! You won't be disappointed!
Love this big little car
After driving my saturn for 4 years, I went to purchase another small vehicle due to my long working commute. But, I live in Pa and the weather can be harsh at times...this car got me through the mountains, the horror of driving the highway with all the 18wheelers!! This car is fun, turns the heads of drivers on the highway..and I feel totally safe inside
The best thing
This is the best thing that's happened to me. the aerio is the best hatchback compared to the matrix (XR)and the mazda 3
