The care wasnt even in drivable condition. The clutch was broken and undrivable.

Extremely reliable. Amazing comfortable ride for any price point. Spectacular engine. 240 horsepower. Great suspension. Superb braking. Lots of headroom and legroom for all seats. Excellent trunk space. Paint chipping is the reason I don’t give it perfect rating. Rides as good now as 20 years ago when new. Highly recommended.

Performance - Handling, braking Build Quality - Never needed repairs Appearance - Dashboard design is great, Seats are great Cost of Ownership - Great mileage of 25 mpg in city + highway Fun Factor - Car is awesome to drive on freeways as well as in the city

Fantastic Car! The 4-cylinder has plenty of power and amazing gas mileage.

I've had the car now for a year, and my grandmother had it for 9 years before me. It now has only 17,800 miles on it and it has been a fantastic car! For a mid-size seddan, the handling is pretty good, and the steering has good feel, and the throttle is very responsive. All these factors make for quite a fun car to drive. The only pet peeve of mine is that the brakes are realy grabby, which can be quite annoying and cause a subpar ride for others. The 4-cyl engine has some nice pep, and accelerates nicely from a standstill, though could have more torque because steep hills can be trouble for the tranny. And speaking of transmissions, I do not like this one. It is the 5-speed automatic, and it seems as if the gear ratios are all over the place, and it isn't the smoothest transmission at all. Other than that, the rest of the car is perfect. I like the interior styling and equippment, and I was genuinely impressed with the power of the stock speakers! Gas mileage is spot on what the manufacture rating was in 2003, about 25 city/ 34 highway. I love the thing to death, and could not have had a better first car.
