I like this car because of the performance it has it has great get up and go doesn't drag like some cars and with 169000 miles on it still performs the same way it did when I bought it brand new in 2005. The interior has out performed any other car I have ever owned and is easy to clean and durable. I have not had any problems with the transmission or motor and it still has the original motor and transmission. I have had no issues with the cruise control or dash lights since buying this car. All and all this car has out lasted any other car I have ever owned. My only thing that I dislike about this car is the radio because it does not have where you can program your favorite stations. The only thing I have replaced in this car is a motor for a window.

I purchased this car new in 2005 for under $15,000. I was looking for reliable and reasonably comfortable transportation at a moderate cost. I have owned the car now for more than 10 years and it has met my expectations. Since I am retired, I don't do a lot of driving. I have put less than 5000 miles per year on the car. So I can't say that I've put the car to heavy use. But at the level I have driven it, it has performed almost perfectly. There were no major repairs needed. I didn't go out of my way to maintain the car much. I just changed the oil once a year and checked the fluid levels and tire wear. I replaced the battery once and also replaced the tires once over the time that I have owned the car. There was one very minor malfunction and that was that the gas gauge stuck and stopped showing the gas level. I found that I could fix it by tapping on the gauge on the dashboard. After about a year the problem fixed itself and it's been working fine for years since then. For a low priced car it's surprisingly comfortable. I like the seats which are soft and the car has well functioning air conditioning, motorized windows, remote door locks, and a remote trunk release. Overall, I've been very happy with this car.
