You want reliable?

I have to say that although this is not the most comfortable or fast car i have ever driven, it is certainly the most reliable. There wasn't a day that the car didnt start for me regardless of how much i didn't take care of it. My main gripe however is with the interior styling. The car in the automatic version at least, did not come with an arm rest. The particular car i bought also did not have tilt stearing. This made the driving experience a little uncomfortable in general and especially for long trips. Would i buy one again? Yes i certainly would. In fact, i plan to when the time comes. Once again... if reliability is what you are after... this is your car.

Bought this car as a fuel saving alternative to my Silverado. Gas savings paid for car in 11 months. Fun to drive and at 32 city 40 hwy I can go a lot more. Previous owner stated over drive was shot. New thermostat fixed the problem. Seems to be almost a cult following of Paseo owners. Installed new struts at 120,000 miles. It only took an hour and I'm not a professional mechanic. I'll keep this car as long as I can keep it running. It only asks for a little gas, 3500 mile oil changes, and a new air filter every so often. Have had a problem with rear light fuse MELTING. This has happened twice and I've not found the problem.

My wife picked a great car

When my wife and I buy a car we alternately pick. The paseo was her choice and it has been a winner. We bought it new and have over 150 thousand miles on it. It still has all original equipment, For years I drove it 98 miles a day back and forth to work and never once experienced a breakdown. It still averages about 39 miles a gallon. The interior is a little cramped for my size and the seatbelts ... could be better.

I can't say enough about this car. She was born ten years ago and I've had her from day 1. Ten years and 178,000 miles later it still never dissapoints. I still get 35 miles to the gallon and it turns over every morning no matter how cold. Never had a major repair. It still has the original clutch! I'm getting ready to pass her on to a family member who was 6 years old when the car was born. It's gonna break my heart.

My white paseo

I bought my paseo used at a toyota dealer who owned it and used it as a messenger car. This car is 15 years old and have not given me any problems at all. Before I bought it, I asked my dads advice about buying a first year car. He said, if Toyota owned it, whatever problems that car had, you can be sure that Toyota fixed it. There is no flaw about this car. The paint and interior is in good condition. I must agree with the other reviews that this car is very small and you can not have back seat passenger. I use to go on 6 hr trip with this car and it is really hard on the back. But, if you are just driving around town or doing errands with this car, $20 last a long time
