A great daily driver and wonderful on the freeway

Cons

Ugly as sin!

Good Overall Car, Great To Travel With — This car is so freak'n ugly! Those tail lights that tried to be a retro through back did NOT work! That being said this is a great car if you want to be seen in it. I had all the bells and whistles, leather, moon roof, everything and it was great on the freeway. I drove it Virginia Beach Virginia to Protland Oregon to Calgary Canada and never had a problem with it. The engine is bulletproof!

Not My Choice — I feel like I am 17 and driving my daddy's car. Not used to the leather and now that I have to buy tires, I am re-thinking my (husband's) purchase. Also, along with the super expensive high test gasoline that it sucks up.

Great American Affordable Family Car — I always liked the looks of the LS, & SS I was realy surprised to see how well this car rides & drives. Alot nicer then I thought it would be. The aceleration is very good. Still watching the gas mileage, but so far not bad.

Lots of room.

It's gold.

Li'l Troy — It's reliable and gets fairly good gas mileage. It also has a lot of leg room on the inside in both the front and back seats. It's just your basic sedan but it will get you where you need to go.

Primary Use: Commuting to work
