General comments?
For a car that my parents bought for $250 this car has been through a lot and kept going. The 2.2 liter engine is bullet proof. On the highway it's been up to 120 miles per hour. Down snow mobile trails in the middle of the winter. Through multiple snow banks, through fields. For being a compact sedan this car handles like any Cavalier or Accord of it's day, with plenty of power off the line. living in the mountains creates a little more wear and tear on the car. passing other cars is not a problem from 40 to 70 miles an hour easy with plenty of power behind it. This car has seen me trough high school and about to get me trough college.
