This price range reflects the Kelley Blue Book Suggested Retail value for all trim levels, but not necessarily all available options.
The Kelley Blue Book Suggested Retail value represents the amount an auto dealer might ask for a specific vehicle; the actual sale price will vary. A vehicle's popularity, condition, warranty, color and local market conditions are factors involved in determining a final price. The retail value is not a trade-in or private party value.
The Suggested Retail value assumes that the vehicle has been fully reconditioned and has a clean title history. The Suggested Retail value also allows for advertising, sales commissions, insurance and other costs of doing business as a dealer. Most vehicles offered at this price have passed an inspection, and some may carry a warranty. Vehicle mileage is assumed to be normal or below normal.
"This was the first non-American car I ever bought. My history is Vega, Monza, Pontiac 6000, LeSabre, Impala, Bonneville SSEi. But we were ready for something different.
This is an outstanding commuter car for in-city driving. Real-workld driving in a metro city like houston is 35-40 in town and 40-45 on highway - that;'s with the A/C on (which is 6 months of the year here). This a very 'zippy' car, great acceleration onto freeway, i've never topped it out but top end is over 85 mph (got to keep up with these TX drivers!). after 4 yrs still get 50mpg on flat highway w/o a/c running.
Long road trips will require rest stops: no cruise control and the seats are firm (like airline seats) but comfy. Leg room is awesome - I'm 6ft4in and it has as much leg room as any fullsize car (and more than many).
other drawback - sound system is minimal. no CD player and speakers are only an 8in round spkr in each door. Road noise (primarily wind and the next driver's stereo blasting hip-hop) is also present so don't expect a hi-fi music experience.
But I love this car still after 4 yrs and plan to do it again if they can dress it up just a bit w/o destroying its spirit (read: don't let it get fat!)"
