"it runs. it does have its issues, but i mean, it IS 20 years old. this was one of the cars that GM put a poor coat of paint on. the headliners in the A-Body sedans such as this one are NOTORIOUS for falling down. a shot of spray adhesive and some safety pins will fix that. the rather large 3.3L V6 engine has a nice performance to it, for a bulky mid-size car. crack the throttle, and it'll put you back in the seat pretty well, and still makes 30 highway and about 22 city. good body line, but watch the rear tail light. crack it, and you are going on a wallet-busting trip to the junkyard. i find that a lot of people in my area who own this car have problems with lethargic power windows. All in all, if you want a dependable, affordable, high mpg and low cost maintenance car, it is the way to go. beware of rust spots on these cars, however."

"Looks as nice as the day I purchased it. I have never had any problems or any repairs that needed attention. I replaced all 4 tires this year,not because they were bad. Just thought it was time as a safty measure. There is no rust on it. It has always been garaged and kept clean. My wife and I have had to have the misfortune to ride in the rear seat of a couple of new cars and I guess they are okay if you don't care that you can't fasten your seat belts and your knees are scraping your chin. The milage is just fine,we no longer have to drive 50 miles a day to a job that pays less than the car is worth."

"Honestly, I got this car for free (from my mom). I love it. It's not the most stylish of vehicles since its so long. But if you give it your own touch like I did, then it certainly makes a difference. I have had a couple problems...but only because my car is a 96 so its a bit old. I replaced the gas tank, fuel line, front struts, and starter. I got all my parts used and have connections to fix my car so I haven't spent a lot on fixing it, also like I said I did get it for free so great value. My only complain is the window. Not a huge deal to me. I can crack it...but if i get it all the way down, I will spend the next hour gradually getting it back up. All in all, its definitely a good car. They seem to go forever if you can give it a little TLC after a while."
