I have had the car for about 2 months. I bought it used from a private dealer and the car had a few things wrong, but nothing a car enthusiast like me couldn't handle. I paid $1,300 and was the best car I have bought so far.Apr 20, 2015

This car is merely functional. It just fills the gap between when you buy your very first beater, to when you get your first nice car that you can actually be proud of. This little guy, with it's powder blue color, was fit for a girl. And only a girl. But I had one. And I was embarrassed to drive it. That was the last time I ever let my dad do my car shopping for me. Sure, it was reliable. To a fault. I wanted this thing to start breaking down so I could get something better, but it just kept going. The few repairs were easy enough to do myself and didn't break the bank. I just hated this car because of its effeminate color and its complete lack of power or handling capability.Mar 15, 2009

It has good power for a standard 1600. Braking isn't the best but it does the job. It gets under steer around tight corners. It has a squeaky clutch and a few minor rattles. Its not a cool looking car but not ugly either which is good. Its cheap to run. Yea its pretty fun to drive sometimes. I would recommend this car to someone wanting something quick and cheap to run.

sputtering while driving, very little acceleration
I have a '96 sentry gxe. When I go to accelerate my engine will start to sputter, or when I'm driving the engine will do the same and I cant accellerate, I'll slow down and a few minutes later the engine will catch and I can pick up speed? What is it and what can I do to fix this
