Used 1993 Geo Metro for Sale near Murfreesboro, TN
3.9 Overall rating
(10 reviews)This car is actually very decent. It's not much to look at and it certainly isn't packing any power in the engine (hey, it's only three cylinders), but it's reliable as long as you take care of it. I've been driving it for three or four years and have had almost no problems outside of regular maintenance issues (old battery, worn tires; both replaced). The interior is all right, too. The hatchback makes for a good bit of storage space, but the back seats are quite cramped. A steering wheel cover and seat covers help out a lot, since the inside colors are very muted. Mostly gray with some flecks of color in the seat pattern. As for performance...well, there really isn't any. As a city car, the Metro is great. Get above 50 MPH and the acceleration is almost non-existent. Very little power in the higher gears (4th and 5th gears, especially), which makes for interesting freeway drives. It probably wouldn't go over 85, even downhill. The handling, though, is all right given good tires. I haven't exactly put it through its paces, but it takes corners without slipping or anything. Overall, I'm impressed that the Metro has been as good as it is. It's not anything I'd stick with forever, but as a first car, it's been awesome. At least it's not rusty and backfiring all the time. Now for a couple of the questions suggested: Why did I choose this car? Well, I didn't, really. My parents were looking for another car and my uncle knew a guy who sold fixed-up Geos. At only $1000, it was a great deal. How do I use my car? During high school, I drove it mainly to and from the high school in my home town. Now, I drive it wherever I need, though I don't use it while I'm at school down in Seattle. What do I enjoy about it? The reliability, for sure. I know all the little quirks and none of them are that problematic. It doesn't leak or have a sticky clutch or anything like that. The less trouble my car gives me, the happier I am. What would I change or improve? I'd give it a more powerful engine, bigger wheels, and a new paint job.
238,000 miles and still going. The shifter is going a bit, it's hard to put it into 3rd when the RPMs are high.
performance- i mean come on its a geo (not good) build quality- a lot and it always skweals til 35mph appeance- interior (none) exterior (ok) cost of ownership- 53mpg, maintenance ungodly fun factor- all cars are fun to drive but mine i love it (will never sell it just make it better FOR ME)

Way over priced for this little car, per Kelly blue book. I love Geos but this one was just too much
