    Super fun to drive

    This car is exceptionally fun to drive, especially with the top down. Great economy, good performance and it looks great.

    It's manual 5 speed

    Specs show transmission as automatic, but if you read description and look at pictures it is Manual. Stars don't play a part in this review of vehicle.

    Best car I've had

    The engine is average; not super powerful, but other than that it's a great car. The top is easy to put down and up, it handles great, and the factory stereo and speakers are fantastic.

    Most fun car I've owned

    Definite fun in the sun car! People love to look at this car. This car was super popular when it was produced 1990s-2002. Now it is becoming a unique and hard to find vehicle. Owners don't want to sell them. If you never driven one you wouldn't understand. Get behind the wheel. Put the top down. Drive along the beach or out on a country road for the ultimate experience.

    cute and reliable

    Good gas saver. Safety features I liked. Dash is easy to read and see. Does well in winter weather. Looks great in summer, too.

    A safe car for accidents

    This car was able to handle the most traumatizing accident. To make the story short, my accident was on the freeway and it was pretty bad. Fortunately I came out alive with only a couple of abrasions. I would recommend this car to any of those who wants high ratings for car crash tests. This car saved my life!
