1993 Geo Metro Base review from North America
"A great car for little money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Both interior door handles are broken. That's it, really.
General comments?
I just bought this little car a couple of weeks ago, but I'm so excited about it I felt compelled to complete this survey. I've always been a diehard Toyota/Honda/Nissan man. My 1989 Toyota Van died, the a/c was broken anyway, and I needed a cheap, reliable, simple car for commuting. Well, this little Suzuki-engined wonder has blown me away. The best $500 I ever spent! If you can swallow your pride and drive an admittedly "uncool" car, go for the Metro/Suzuki Swift. I'd love to find a convertible in good shape (I have a 2-door hatchback). No leaks, no oil burning, COLD (TOO cold) A/C, tight suspension. Short on frills, long on value.
