General comments?
This was my first car, and now that it is totaled, I will miss it, it never let me down and it always started no matter what, this car is a bargain, people put tempo's down, but the people who put them down don't own them, I like my car and will miss it... a lot.
the seats in this car are very comfy, and although it is a 4 banger, it has adaquate power and it dont look bad either.........ill miss it
