The look of this car is somewhat stylish, front seats are comfortable, well build for size and style, accelerates well for size, should be all disc brake but brakes well enough, handle very well, good enough safety rated, fun car to drive on back country roads.May 09, 2015

It's the kind of car you don't worry when parking in a bad neighbor hood , or school parking lot. It gets you where you need to go eventually and will most likely never tempt you into a speeding ticket,in fact you would have to really be trying hard to earn one in this car. It's not a chick magnet and just being seen in it keeps you humble if not embarrassed from time to time. But if your not looking to impress people and just need to get where you gotta go it's all that and then some.Jun 08, 2013

buen carro, bonito estilo, rentable no es muy caro, bonito color bonitos aros, si se le invierte dinero es un carro bonito y en si la linea de este accent es muy linda, el unico problema es ponerle un filtro ya que reduce la economia de gas, de hecho incrementa la potencia del carro pero genera mas gastoJan 21, 2013

11 years and this baby still has it, excellent power even with the lower power 1.5 liter engine paint not as great as it could be, but i live in an area near a rock quarry and it is 11 years old so i suppose it could be much worse.Oct 22, 2012

The car seems to me in great-looking and is an excellent fit with the form of the car with the existing technologies and demonstrated by the acceleration while driving without any obstacle with taking into account that the car is newSep 21, 2010

such a great car for its price, nice looking, well built. mine is a GSI a little more powerful, and a little better looking than the normal GS. street-wise, this car handles well and is awesome on highways, accelerates fast for its price, and is much much better than any of the cars in its price-range. 110hp is great :DJun 13, 2010

Belle petite auto mais pas hyper performante, la mienne était bleu potomac et elle était automatique. L'auto est très peu protégé contre la rouille alors faite attention. Coût entretien pas mal plus $$$$ et en plus il y a des affaire qui brise vraiment pas cool comme les moteur des whipper 400$ et plus. Pas non plus économique d'essence mais j'avoue je la roulais pas mal.Apr 24, 2010

Like gas mileage. They have transmission problems have no overdrive in transmission. Has no performance at all could roll down a hill faster then it could drive. Cheap to drive not the cheapest on parts. Would not suggest this car if you like performance.Mar 20, 2010

I love it. Needs brakes but when fixed it is the bees knees. Quick to perform, easy on gas, over 80 mph it is as smooth as a Cadilac. If I had more horsepower, I would have a lot more tickets to pay for.Dec 03, 2009

Oy vey. This car was like the Korean version of Alfa Romeo....minus the speed of course. My relationship with this car was very much of the love/hate kind. It handled wonderfully such the type of car is was. Although, that was probably more so attributed to its sluggishness rather than its supreme engineering. Speaking of, the car was not built well at all. The doors were actually designed to leak....damn Koreans. Aug 06, 2009

It is a hatchback, so it has great potential for an audio system (which im in the process of taking advantage of)! Pretty good on gas, all matters on how I drive it(It is a 5 speed). Mom bought it for me!Jul 09, 2009

Acceleration is gutless, Braking would be better with new tires, handling is decent, only issue power steering hose cracked, there are better looking cars, only good thing is gas mileage about 35mpg in summer around 40mpg for highway, has no balls but still fun to drive around in. Recommendation - if you want good gas mileage.Jan 31, 2009

What users have asked

Laura W asked a Maintenance & Repair question 12 years ago

Overheating. Just replaced radiator and thermostat, but still hasn't fixed the problem.

My car overheated the other day, and it was leaking coolant horribly. I got a new radiator, which stopped the leaking, but the car was still overheating so then we tried replacing the thermostat but it is overheating even now. I spent my entire check on getting those things fixed, what now? I just got paid again but don't have much to spare towards getting it fixed, so I need to make it count. What can I do myself to find the issue? I'm not very handy with tools, and will need a pretty thorough explanation. Thanks if you can help!
