I Love This Car...there's A Slight Problem... — This is my all time best car ever. I bought it as a certified pre-owned in 2006 and it has been reliable until this year. All of a sudden there are about $2,000 worth of maintenance items that I am told need to be done because it has 108,000 miles. On top of that, the starter is acting up, or at least the mechanic I took it to thought it might be the starter. Ouch! The ride is smooth, the power is just right and it handles fine. I love the way the car looks and drives. I am retired now and the maintenance costs are really a lot for me to shell out. I have to keep it in good working order.

My Dream Car — There is nothing about my car I dislike. I get many positive comments about my car and the wheels I put on the car. This car drives like a dream and is a joy to drive. At 123,000+ and counting, this my car drives as new.
