Critical Review

"WORST CAR EVER"

THIS WAS A REAL LEMON. THIS CAR WORKED FOR APPROXIMATELY 4 MONTHS AND BROKE DOWN. IT HAS BEEN PARKED EVER SINCE. I CAN'T EVEN FIND PARTS TO FIX THIS CAR.

Very few problems
Pros

Low maintenance cost.

Cons

None

I purchased this car new in 2000. Very few problems. The sad part is Daewoo auto division went out of business within two years of purchasing the vehicle. Replacement parts are becoming very rare.

My first car
Pros

Luxury appearance, Great Price,

Cons

Small Cup holders, Dealer went under, Not many fea

I have had my Daewoo for 3.5 years now. Bought it with approx. 70K miles for <$2500. This was my very first car and At first I was very skeptical because it seemed toooo good to be true. But over the 3 short years I had no major mechanical issues, just routine things (until recently). People kept telling me that I shouldnt have bought a Daewoo because of the whole bankruptcy thing and that parts would be extremely expensive/difficult to get. I never experienced an issue with getting parts. My recent issues have been the wheel bearings worn and camshaft position sensor and a small mystery oil leak. Because these repairs would cost me over $1000 I have decided to look for a newer car. I loved my car because it held me up well, even with a 600K roadtrip, but now I'm ready to part ways with it :(

This car is tried and true
Pros

Extremely dependable with power to have fun!

Cons

GM parts, some hard to find!

I bought this car new in 2001. Now with 127,000 miles. The only things that I have replaced is the timing belt, radiator (because it had a plastic body), and been through 3 batteries. Not bad for 10 years! This car still runs great! Most cars rarely max Rpms above 4Gs, but this car has always revved between 5 and 6 Gs every time you push on the gas a little too hard. 2.2 L4 that gets 30 plus on the highway and 20 plus in the city! It is a shame that this company went the way of so many car companies lately, Bankrupt due to poor management! In the coming week I will replace some vacuum and heater hoses for only a few dollars. I have not made a car payment since 2005, which has allowed my wife to drive a much nicer car,and she has now been through 3 since I bought this. Love it, love it, love it! I should get 200k miles out of this baby!

Best car for the $ we ever purchased!
Pros

VALUE AND FEATURES

Cons

lower horsepower than competitors

Equivalent features and quality to cars costing more than twice as much (Honda's Toyotas). Reliable and good handling,good solid body. A touch small on the interior for those over 6 ft 250lbs. Engine always starts and runs fine, but would be better with a few more horsepower (this is not a sports car!).
