2005 Suzuki Forenza

Nice car when running

By carvy (CO) on Tuesday, June 18, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 62,000

Pros: "Stylist, roomy."

Cons: "Poor quality, prone to oil leaks, Daewoo engine"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 2

"Bought this car new and eight years later have only 62000 miles on it. It should be in great condition, but after several recalls and warrenty trips to the shop, it is not a great or even a good car. Quality is very, very poor and small cosmetic things break on it all the time."

Regular maintenance is a must...recently had it appraised at $3300, im ok wit that. Overall you get your monies worth."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 89,650

Pros: "economical and practical fun to drive!!!"

Cons: "loose handling on turns have good tires."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9

"it will take care of you. The car does everything a compact car should do. The only minor issue is the driving around turns is a little loose. it does not have the tight handling as other cars. but for basic transportation it serves it's purpose and some (premium package model). If you are looking to get a corolla get this one it will save you money and it does the same as used corolla."

Horrible

By Samantha W (AR) on Monday, April 01, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 79,970

Pros: "none"

Cons: "everything. engine failing, interior falling apart"

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

"I bought this car 13 months ago and i know it was 6 years old when i bought it but i have had absolutely nothing but trouble out of it since the very day i got it. From cosmetic, to mechanical it is falling apart on me. i still owe $6000 more than it is worth. it just turns my stomach. i do not recommend anyone buy this car unless you have a ton of money to pour into it."
