1997 Geo Metro LSi review from North America
"A get what you pay for kind of car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmision went out of the car only 6 months after I bought it. The alternator went out. I had to replace the muffler. The brakes are not good, but they are new. Everything in the car feels cheap and could break at any second.
General comments?
This car was made cheap and I would never buy another one. The cabin is really loud.
