I love this car!

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 121,300

Pros: "Easy ride, leather, electric front seats, safe."

Cons: "Dings, less than 30 mpg."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 7

"Comfortable to drive; easy on the body especially when driving long distances. I've often called it my Granny car, though many younger folks have this vehicle, too. I hate to give it up, but must. The ride is terrific! Doesn't corner like a sports car, but then it isn't a sports car! Huge trunk, never-used spare tire; decent sound system, and will accelerate like a much newer, smaller vehicle. Has a couple of dings, but for a 12-year-old car, that's pretty good. Always been garaged and we've always kept up on the maintenance when it was due. New front brakes, tires in good shape, interior is in good condition...like I said, I hate to give it up. They don't make cars like this anymore. Darn."

"I have driven this car for seven years, and truthfully have not had any problems. It performs just as well today as it did the day I bought it. It is comfortable, quiet, and reliable on long or short trips. It is roomy with a large trunk and seating is comfortable. I am not ready to sell it."

Bought used from one own who took excellent care

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 171,000

Pros: "Beautiful car"

Cons: "Transmission & Radiator Probs. DIC doesn't work"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"Bought used at 170+ miles and within one week of driving, noticed it was shifting hard. At week three it ran hot on idle and I found it was from leaking coolant. Now I'm in the process of finding out the cause of all of the above and hoping the coolant leak isn't a crack in the head... The Driver's Instrument Controls are not working, but I knew that upon buying the car. It's a pain in the rear to have to track mileage by the odometer upon gas refills but atleast a chimer sounds when it's running low on fuel. I don't like the steering. It's too touchy."
