Bought this car 4 years ago for $750 and put 82,000 miles on it. Last 3 months, I put 5,100 miles on it. Always gets 44 - 47 miles per gallon. It is absolutely FUN to drive; it's quick and nimble, except over 70mph, or going up a mountain, then it's a little slow.
Very comfortable seating for a car this size. I'm 5-10 at 235 pounds.
Just bought a '91 model LSI and a '94 model 4-door. These little cars are just too good not to have around!!
The 1989-1994 Geo Metro is a very economical small car, however I don't suggest them they are very dangerous on todays roads, the first Metros didn't offer any kind of side impact protection, so basically anything on the road can hit one and total it, I would think twice about buying one of these cars even more so If I had children. In 1995 the car was redesigned and air bags, side impact protection and, optional anti-lock brakes were available so I suggest if you want a Metro you look into the 1995-2001 models-
