This 1999 Chevy Prizm is by far the best car I've ever owned. The quality and durability is second to none. The car currently has 127,000 miles and starts with no problems whether it is -30 or 100 degrees. The exterior and interior design is dramatically boring and really has very little style to it. I guess I had to sacrifice looks for quality in this case. The gas mileage is about 40 mpg with a mix of city and highway driving. My car has a 5-speed manual, so no doubt that helps the number go up. Performance is okay. I've never needed more power then the car offers, but it would be nice to have that little extra power in order to increase the fun factor. I love how the car handles the dreadful Wisconsin winters. The car plows through the deep snow and has never left me with a problem. The biggest complain is the front leg comfort. Some more arch support for the legs in the front seats would be greatly helpful. And it would be nice if the back seat folded down. Other than that, it is an excellent basic transportation car that is cheap to own and maintain.
