I bought this car new at the end of the model year. I have the spoiler on the back so gives it a touch of sportiness. It has been very reliable, never any major problems with it. It had all the essentials you look for in a car, but being more of a budget car, there are always bells and whistles that a more expensive car would have that this one didn't. I have gotten regular maintenance, which I think is important to make a car last longer.

When I bought this car, it had 40,000 miles on it. I have driven it back and forth across the country several times and never had any trouble with it. It has minimal road noise and is very comfortable to sit in. If you keep up with oil changes and routine maintenance, it will last a long time. I like the body style and the interior space available. The trunk is large, and the backseats fold down so I have been able to fit building supplies and large household item in the trunk. Some of the accessories are not well built. The door handle on the passenger side broke off pretty easily when my husband went to open it one time. The driver side mirror cover broke off, but we're not sure how. Other than that, everything seems to work well. It drives smoothly and gets pretty decent as mileage (about 30m/gal).
