Small But Mighty — I love my small car. At the time it was the right size for a family of 5. Now we are a family of 7 and need more room. I love the v6 engines just because of the power.But for the spectra to be a 4 cylinder it has power also. It gets me and my family where we need to go. Basically it takes use from point A to Z. I am never letting go of this car.

Good. — I like that it is fuel efficient, it's quiet. I dislike that it does not have enough room. We have had it for almost a year now, but it is two years old. All we have done to that car since we have it is change oil , service & drive. It does about 90 miles everyday, and no prolems so far.

Nice Economical, Sturdy Car — For a car I didn't really want, I ended up loving it. Would recommend it to anyone. Gets good mileage - 33 to 35mpg on average. Handles very well and is quiet at high speeds. MP3 auxiliary hookup is standard, which is awesome.

Excellent Value — Have driven 8500 miles in my new Spectra and have only one complaint. The front drivers seat is uncomfortable and a little narrow. Features are incredible for the price. Have averaged nearly 30 MPG.

Happy New Owener — This was such a good economical deal. A no interest five year financing with an amortization of 84 months!!! Making bi-monthly payments reasonable, flexible and amazingly affordable for a new car! We are thrilled and since we bought on December 31 our dealership took $450 with only 68klm on the 2007 that still has a five year warranty bumper to bumper - who can loose? that came out to $16,591 for an LX Manual Transmission
