You get what you pay for.
This car is an IDEAL starter, HS,
college, commuter car. It's my starter
car and I'm still driving it(my second
year). It took some serious punishment
with my driving (that includes peeling
out, handbrake slides, going over bumps
at fairly fast speed, fast cornering),
yeah it lacks power but it surely
doesn't handle badly(60mph on 35mph
offramp).
My tercel also was consuming oil at one
point, but after timing belt replacement
(and oil change with it) it stopped!
I managed to blow (well crack) a head
gasket in it, but with a $2 bottle of
radiator sealant and new spark plugs, it
was back up and running. Up to this day
it is still running with 90k miles on
it, no engine/tranny problems
Great little car!
I love this car. It is BY FAR the best value I've ever received in an automobile.
Bought it used and replaced the catalytic converter but no problems since. It runs circles around any used American car I have owned in handling (it's fun to drive!) and VALUE.
I got it for its reliability and boy, am I happy! Definitely worth what I paid and holding its resale value nicely. I plan to drive it many more years!
The Little Car that Could!
I bought this as my first real car 5 years ago and have since put 50,000 miles on it. It doesn't have much power (having the manual lets you strangle every ounce out of it), but it gets you there in the end. Reliability has been almost perfect, the only thing I had to change was the starter motor. It burns about 1/3 quart of oil per tank, but I can live with that. My biggest complaint against the car is that it is not good for tall drivers, I'm 6'4", and on long trips it destroys my back. It has only been recently that I have been driving a lot, I got a new job where I drive 500 miles a week, so sadly the car had to go. But if you're just looking for a basic car that doesn't break, this is it.
