Drives Good

One of the better cars I have owned. Many repairs made brakes, alternator, timing belt, seal, sensor, throttle body, ignition switch and exhaust pipes. I like a manual transmission it's like really driving a car.

Sweet car

I really like the looks of this car. It just stinks you have to go to the Sport or Limited model to get dark interiors, but I'll deal with it.

Trouble from the start

I bought a 2006 back in 2008 with only 14k miles and this car gave me nothing but trouble after only 6 months. Transmission has has issues and sometime won't shift. Went out after only 70k miles. The suspension is horrible and goes out of alignment easily. I had to replace the tr sensor 3 times. The inside door handles break easily in cold weather. The fuel millage sucks for a car that size and the fuel tank only holds 13 gallons. The engine is loud even with a tune up and it takes forever to accelerate. This thing eats up tires and breaks fast and constantly had to replace them. The check engine light will come on all the time even when nothing seems to be wrong with the vehicle. I had other people who owned one of these have the same issues and regretted buying it almost immediately. My advice would just spend the extra money and get a civic or a corrola if you prefer this style of vehicle.

Average

The car was average in almost all the aspects compared with price. The interior was not clean enough. Didn't find it to be very reliable car.
