1996 Geo Metro Sedan review from Costa Rica
"Incredible combustible economy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Too slow going up hill.
That's it.
General comments?
I had a Nissan Sentra 1987 for two years before.
When I finally decided to get a new car, too many options were not over the table.
I was not very sure about my decision.
Then my pocket thanks to me for switching my 20MPG old 1987 Sentra to this 35MPG jewel (yeah, 35 MPG!!).
I am glad of my choice.
Even when I miss Sentra's aceleration I known it was a great deal.
