The best part about this car was, though it was a
Chevrolet, it really never gave me any problems. The LS
had an awesome acceleration, like all Chevy's, that gave
me a sexy launch off the line at a green light.. Only took
about 30 bucks to fill her up and on a normal work/school
week, I was more than content with the gas mileage.. I'd
definitely buy another, if not the same one again.. It's a
really easy car to keep clean because it doesn't have any
random crevices or hard to reach spots.. Not to mention a
pretty spacious back seat.. lol..

Pros: If you take care of her, she'll return the favor for a long time..

Cons: EVERYBODY HAS ONE!! They're quite popular..

Average mid-size sedan. Very comfortable ride and strong engine. I've had very few problems since I bought it aside from normal wear and tear. I love my car for the comfort, handling, and drive.

The only drawback is the appearance and styling. It's not a sports car at all and sometimes takes a little coaxing on the highway onramps. Over all though, it works perfectly for my lifestyle (work, kids, condo, etc.).

Pros: Comfort

Cons: Appearance

Built like a Chevy. I've replaced spark plugs and wires and have done some brake work, but that's all I've had to do to this car. It is getting ready to break 178,000 miles and is still running strong.

The only bad thing about this car is that the power window on the drivers' side stops working for a few seconds every now and then, but after a minute, it works again.....weird.

Pros: Quality and Durability

Cons: Not the sportiest looking car.

This car has decent power from a 3.1L v6 engine which produces about 160 hp. 0-60mph in about 9 seconds. It has the best lumbar support it is very supportive and comfortable. Perfect seating because you can seat 6. this car handles pretty well for quick cornering. Large Trunk so you can take lots of luggage for vacations. We have had it for 11 years and expect to keep it longer. No problems and only has 85,00km

Pros: Power and comfort

Cons: Nothing to hate

It was kept well so it was pretty nice on the inside.

Pros: Lots of room, wouldn't die, survived an accident. LTZ had tons of
features. Not completely ugly.

Cons: Not too attractive, felt like driving a boat, very much a grandma's car..

I picked this car up at auction a few years back as my first car. I payed 1.6k for it with 100k miles and i have never looked back. Except for an oil change and new tires no work has been needed on the car.
