"Great Little Car"
"I purchased the vehicle from a dealer, used, in 2001 and have had NO problems with it. Mechanically it has been a sound vehicle. The 4 cylinder engine is strong with great pickup and great 30+ mileage. The interior has held up wonderfully, no tears in the cloth seats or cracks in the dash or places where plastic is used. It is a great car for college students and as a commuter car. Thanks Buick!"
