My first car.

October 17, 2022
By Kels from Reynoldsburg, OH
Used to own this car

I got this car when I was a sophomore in high school in 2017. I was 15 at the time. And I was in love. I got a 2012 LX for 5k, a steal. It took one year for the engine to blow while I was at the YMCA. It was covered under a recall. I loved this car and still love it. It was my first real sense of freedom, it was sporty for the budget, and it was really handsome. I loved the body styling, and even the normal audio system was nice. It had pep, it had character, and I was proud of it. But i’d be lying if i didn’t say that this car was a money pit. I mean, it felt like repair after repair. First it was a bad knock sensor, then my control arms went out early, then a evap leak I couldn’t find for ages, then I had electrical issues, then it was my fuel sender unit not working, then it was a coolant and AC leak, and the list went on and on. It felt like I had a BMW with a N54!!! Now imagine this bill on a HS student, let alone the average person! Thank God I had my parents to stomach the costs, otherwise I would’ve gone broke. I loved this car with all my heart, and it took me where I needed to go. But it felt like it always wanted to start something with me. Always looking for a reason to break the bank. It’s sitting in my lawn. Maybe i’ll give it to my kid one day. Do I reccomend this car? No, not at all. It’s a money pit. If you’re ready to deal with issues, go ahead. But if you’re a kid in HS who has a mechanic in the family, or income isn’t an issue, then I recommend it. It might be a pain to be with, but you’ll love it. And it’ll love you.
